How about including the other libraries that Subversion links against in
the license exception?  The other ones that I'm aware of are apr-iconv
(for Windows Subversion), Neon, zlib, and openssl.

Best,

Great!

I did consider it, if only to avoid this the whole convoluted exception
business. :)  But I have a pretty strong preference for the GPL,
particularly for personal projects like this.

Would you instead possibly consider placing this under the same license as
everything else in the repository, a BSD-based license?  Quid pro quo, and
all that.

License exceptions are only needed for things with licenses that aren't
GPL-compatible.

Neon is LGPL and zlib's license is a very loose, public-domainy sort of
thing, so those aren't problems.

However, I had forgotten about OpenSSL, whose license is the bane of
GPLed projects everywhere. :)  And I wasn't aware of the existence of
apr-iconv.  I'm told that it is possible to get the Gtk+ 2.0 python
bindings working on Win32, so it could become an issue someday.

I'll update the gsvn legal boilerplate to include exceptions for these
two libraries.  Thanks for pointing them out.
