For historical reasons, the GNU GPLv3 is not (like the GPLv2) mentioned in the list of “EUPL compatible licenses”. As long there are no concordant requests from EUPL users, this situation will probably not change. The EUPL downstream compatibility works as a FLOSS exception list: while the EUPL is copyleft regarding the covered software, it is permitted to license under a compatible license a larger derivative work, including the covered software and another software received under this compatible licence (i.e. the GPLv2). However, any EUPL licensor may, owning full copyright on software, extend the exception to the GPLv3. Publishing such FLOSS exception lists is a frequent practice to improve interoperability when a component is licensed under copyleft conditions. See Oracle / MySQL using the GPLv2 http://www.mysql.com/about/legal/licensing/foss-exception/ ) or Sencha using the GPLv3- http://www.sencha.com/legal/open-source-faq/open-source-license-exception-for-applications/). For any request about the EUPL, see http://www.osor.eu/legal-questions-1/contact-legal.

Cool :) Thanks for the update! Mark Mark Salsbery Microsoft MVP - Visual C++ :java:

Hi Chris, I don't see anything wrong on my side, I received your congrats some days ago, I receive the CP newsletters, but nothing when someone posts in my articles, or answers in a forum like this one. The only thing I can think of is that my email has been broken for some hours at the time where the site upgrade was on. Thanks, Alain
