Licencing (WAS RE: Filters : mod_ssl - WORKS)
Hi.
I wonder what the ASF's position is with adding wrappers to non-BSD
licenced products.
for example.. libXML & berkleyDB,& TDB.
I understand we can't package these into APR. but is if someone took
the time and wrote APR-wrappers (similar to how expat/sdbm works) would
these patches be wanted/added to apr? (with configure options to include
them)
??

Personally, I have no problem with wrapper code like this. In fact, I
would encourage it. :-)
