I hope you’re doing well and before anything I want to thank you sincerely for your contributions to free software.
I am the project leader of OmegaT, a 20-year-old Java GPL3 application that keeps helping professional translators around the world.
We are what’s called a “Computer Aider Translation” tool, and you may know our proprietary colleagues under the names of Trados or MemoQ.
OmegaT uses SVNKit in its “team project” function (that uses either an SVN or a git server, based on the user’s environment). That function is a vital part of OmegaT since it provides for free what proprietary tools ask thousands of dollars for (similar functions would be used in translation agency or corporate settings, etc.)
As you probably know, sqljet is a dependency of SVNKit, but sqljet’s license seems to be GPL 2.0 only (and not GPL 2.0 + or GPL 3.0, etc.).
As we are working on publishing a new version, we were checking all our dependencies and found that incompatibility (you most probably know that GPL 2.0 is not compatible with GPL 3.0).
So, we were wondering if there could be a way around that issue, like you changing the sqljet license to TMate Open Source License or something that would allow us to use it as a dependency.
thanks for your inquiry! We’ll add GPL 3.0 to the SQLJet license in the next release of SVNKit. We’ve just published new SVNKit version few days ago, so expect the next one to be published in about a month.
