Post #60,881 by admin 11/3/02 3:47:53 PM Reply	Licensing compatibility: Apache and GPL I want to use some Apache License code but GPL my own stuff. The Apache code ([link\|http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine\|http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine]) is a framework/API. Is this possible? Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
