随着Ext2.1.0发布,它把之前的开源许可协议从LGPL改成了GPL,这引起了不小的震动,在官方论坛,以及在JavaEye都有过热烈的讨论,ExtJS的作者甚至遭受了人身攻击,一些人认为ExtJS的成功离不开整个社区的支持:社区贡献的补丁,文档,邮件列表,论坛支持等。
这个轩然大波并没有随着Jack的那篇博客而消失,却有愈演愈烈的趋势:基于Ext2.0.2的LGPL项目OpenExt出现在SourceForge上了。ExtJS的开源协议问题接下去会如何发展,你对此有何意见,欢迎讨论。

主要是授权费多少的问题。

因为它有传染性,所有的内容都需要开源
如果你想用EXT,买它的商业License吧

Jack, I am very sorry that I posted a thread on the license issue and maybe said something personal attack words a few days ago. For we have a project based on ExtJS adopt the same license model LGPL/Commecial, I feel a bit angry that we have to change it if ExtJS license model changed.
This morning I read you blog about the license change history. I think I was wrong. You did the right decision. And In the same time, I researched some license models of a few open source projects these days, It seems that they almost all choose the GPL/Commercial license model. This model could keep the balance of our passion to develop a great open source project and the money to make a better living, so WHY NOT???
There are always different voices on everything happened every day, DON'T Care! There are always some guys and companies want to earn his own money and pay nothing to others! IT'S UNFAIR! For example, in our country there is a company that found a shiit open source project named "OperaMasks" that just translate ExtJS to JSF, they even NEVER mention EXTJS and they just said they were building a revolutionary framework that would change the WEB!!!
You and your team have been doing a great work and just continue to concentrate on it. We will support your great work as before. We bought the svn access before the Ext2.0 released, and we will buy commercial licenses of Ext when our customers like to pay for our open source product.
Sorry, Jack. Thanks, Jack.

大家想像一下,如果Eclipse是GPL,那么会有今天吗
我不是说Ext改成GPL就是坏事,因为好坏只有当事人知道
但最终结果未必如想象

咒骂者是小人心态作怪,GPL让作者获利了吗?妨碍剽窃者获利才是事实!

这样的行为如果得不到有效的控制,对开源领域的事物只会造成损害。
尤其是EXT 的外观 被剽窃的不少 但发现修改的起来还不如自己动脑筋想少花时间
这也是由四套主题到2.0后变为两套的原因。

不知道下面的兄弟说他有什么问题。

GPL从根本上可以防止一要商业机构把开源成果占为已有,这样更利于开源的发展(对开源程序稍作修改占作已有的例子很多)。
世界上70%的自由软件都是以GPL发布的。
GPL与其它的协议的分歧主要在对源文件的修改的控制权上,GPL要求对源文件的任何修改,都必须开放其修改的源代码,并说明其修改,以免对其它人使用造成误会(误认为修改后的文件是最初源文件),这似乎也合常理。
似乎并没有说使用了GPL的软件就必须以GPL开放吧。
