John Maddock <boost.regex@virgin.net> writes:
I have found quite useful to adapt the test for llvm/libc++ ratio/chrono to test Boost.Ratio and Boost.Chrono. But Anthony has signaled me that maybe there is a compatibility problem with the license included in these files.
The following requirement on that license:
* Binaries derived from LLVM must reproduce the copyright notice (e.g. in an included readme file).
Is incompatible with the BSL.
That was my concern. However, this is *test* code. Do we require the BSL (or a compatible license) for the tests as well as the main library code?
How do you want to test a boost library, without deriving a work (testcase) from it? regards, Jens Weller -- GMX DSL SOMMER-SPECIAL: Surf & Phone Flat 16.000 für nur 19,99 Euro/mtl.!* http://portal.gmx.net/de/go/dsl
