Does not matter, since about 25% is GPL, those 25% makes the whole Calligra GPL, unless you remove the GPL code from the distribution on Apple store.

Source code is not the only condition in GPL.

However, for the GPLv2 is a gray area. -- Cyrille Berger Skott _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
