The short answer: yes, there are advantages.

Thanks for the quick response, Chris Recoskie. :) Just a small question: are there are advantages to dealing with these licensing issues other than having Eclipse.org as the host? Apart from the greater visibility and the name as a Eclipse.org project, of course. -- Karl Pietrzak kap4020@xxxxxxx (See attached file: att5j1ap.dat) _______________________________________________ cdt-dev mailing list cdt-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/cdt-dev
