Gerald, A good decision to change the license however, how do I ensure that I have a copy of Luxor SWT and supporting packages that is covered by Apache 2.0? I have a copy of the luxor-swt beta 9 pre package downloaded from source forge some time ago. At the time I downloaded it GNU GPL applied. Now that Apache 2.0 applies as of 23 Feb 2004, is my copy still licensed under GNU GPL or does Apache 2.0 apply retrospectively? I note also that the copy of Rachel etc also downloaded at the same time has headers that refer to GPL. Does the latest code now refer to Apache? Do I have to obtain all the latest code to be licensed under Apache? Regards, Harry Thales Defence (Wells) DISCLAIMER: The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged.
