Re: [tools-pmc] PMC Approval for libwebsockets usage in TCF agent

This is actually a question for "the
lawyers".  I suggest you go ahead and open a CQ making it clear
the license is LGPL and see what they say. My *guess* is it might have
to be dynamically linked, but, not sure.

PMC Approval for libwebsockets usage in TCF agent

Hello,

I would like to make use of the libwebsockets library 
(https://libwebsockets.org/)
in the Eclipse TCF agent 
(https://www.eclipse.org/tcf/).
According to the libwebsockets license 
(https://github.com/warmcat/libwebsockets/blob/v2.0-stable/LICENSE),
it 
should not be an issue to link this library statically and/or 
dynamically with TCF agent (TCF agent is written in "C" code).

Can you please confirm it is okay to include usage of libwebsockets in
TCF agent. Please, let me know any additional details/information you 
may need.

Regards,
Didier Brachet
