----------------------------------------
Is there anything left to do on this JIRA or can we close it?
> Should GPL+CPE move to Cat B?
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: LEGAL-336
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-336
> Project: Legal Discuss
> Issue Type: Question
> Components: Policy Question
> Reporter: John D. Ament
> Priority: Major
>
> The special clause added to the GPL license allows the software to be linked without suffering from the copyleft paradigm - https://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/license.html
> Should this cause us to move this license to the Cat B, e.g. it can be used as a binary dependency but you must not import any source code?
