Comme noté par Bernhard Reiter sur fsf-discussion, il est important de remarquer que la GPL vue par EDF n'est pas vraiment la GPL de base. La licence fournie par EDF contient les clauses suivantes :
http://www.code-aster.org/telechargement/read_license.php?dl=Code_A(...)
| The present license is entirely based on the official GNU GENERAL
| PUBLIC LICENSE, Version 2, June 1991, with the three (3) following
| remarks :
| - We call your attention on the high level of technology of the
| Code_Aster software. The utilization of the software requires
| specific skills in computational mechanics using finite element
| method.
| - This License shall be governed by and shall be interpreted in
| accordance with the French Laws.
| - All disputes or differences arising out in connection with this
| License which cannot be settled amicably shall be settled by the
| commercial court of Paris or any other competent court of Paris
| which would be determined.
Ce qui pourrait rendre cette licence incompatible avec la GPL (remarques 2 et 3). A suivre...
