wxWindows license version 3. LGPL with 3 exceptions, mainly for allowing binaries to be distributed without the demand to provide wx with it if it's unchanged, iirc. The other exceptions are backing that up. The license can be consulted directly.Originally Posted by hpv
One thing that this means is that we can't put LGPL code in - it would violate their license due to wxWidgets having that exception.
No, it wouldn't. Lack of manpower does. The license concerns can be alleviated through using a different source repository, or strict separation in directories.Originally Posted by hpv
That is a matter of opinion. For example I believe the same negative things to be true for KDE, and completely wrong for GNOME and GTK+. This is not the place to express such opinions.Originally Posted by hpv
The file dialog concerns are nonsense. They are fixed in GTK+-2.10, and the new dialog was introduced in 2.4. You really don't want to see what it was looking like pre-2.4. That's why wxGTK uses its own generic file dialog if gtk runtime version is not 2.4 or newer - it's considered so much more worse. GTK+-2.8 has it nice, 2.10 will have the location entry in the dialog, not behind a popup box, and will save settings, and not block on networked bookmarks, and other nice things.
