Thanks Magnus. I guess it means that the license of individual packages is what that matters. The platform on the whole does not have any single license.
In other words, I cannot just say that am using haskell platform but that I have to say, I am using x,y and z libraries which in turn are using a, b, c and d libraries. > A quick search suggests that ..: Ouch! Apologies. Guess I was looking at all the wrong places or my google-fu is embarrassingly bad. Thanks again for the links!
