Is that still true now that we have Threads under the BSL?
yes. I remember a post a while ago that the original author decided to relicense threads to BSL.
I think you just answered with a non-answer ;-)
OK, I'm sorry too much haste. I took time to grep my archive, and then google it in webarchive by title:
"Permission given to change to Boost.License"
http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2006/09/110143.php
But I see, the question was "Is that STILL true" ...
well I don't know if it's still true. I pay some attention to thread related posts on this list, and since that one post I remember nothing about revoking this permission.
You have misunderstood the question completely. It is not: Is Threads under the BSL? (we know the answer to that is "Yes".) The question is: Are there any /other/ libraries that are not under the BSL? If the answer to that question is "No", then the statement: Currently, some Boost libraries have their own licenses. is obviously false, and we can tidy up the licensing page (which will make some corporate lawyers happy). -- Martin Bonner Project Leader PI SHURLOK LTD Telephone: +44 1223 441434 / 203894 (direct) Fax: +44 1223 203999 Email: martin.bonner@pi-shurlok.com www.pi-shurlok.com
