Javeline PlatForm Released under LGPL

Posting this message from the mailinglist by Arnold Daniels

Hi all,

We’ve decided to release Javeline PlatForm Beta v0.98.2 under the LGPL (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.html). While there were few cases where GPL would actually be a problem, the strictness of the license was scaring away potential users. We at Javeline, want developers using JPF to go to sleep at night without worrying about legal problems. Therefore we are switching to this less strict license. The dual-license system will stay in-place. The enterprise license will get you priority service.

For those already proficient with JPF, please talk about, show and blog about it. The platform is starting to take off, but to make this a successful project and ensure it will exist for a very long time, will need more users and for that we need more press.

Thanks for listening.

Best regards,
Arnold

Is Javeline Platform alone is released in LGPL or all other components too? Are Teleport and Smartbindings also released in LGPL? Are other products like DeskRun, Inform, OnEdit, MediaFlow and Javeline Packager also available in LGPL? I am little confused.
