[Mpi-forum] MPI prototype license

[Supalov, Alexander]

Hi everybody,

Many prototypes are being developed currently for MPI-2.2 and MPI-3. Under what license will they be made available to the community? Certain types of licenses, like GPL, may not be suitable for commercial adoption of the prototype code. BSD-like licenses are normally acceptable. I think we should discuss this matter at the Forum this time. You comments and suggestions are welcome.

Best regards.

Alexander
