I meant to add it back when everyone agreed to it and prior to release 1.2, but I guess it slipped my mind.

I have read through it and looks fine to me on the first glance.

Looks very good to me.

(The following is not complaining, it's just thinking aloud:
The only thing that's potentially strange is the temporary nature of the exceptions. It is very much a matter of opinion what happens when these temporary exceptions get removed. I understand that it was Ant's wish, that they would be temporary, so I guess they must be temporary. But it's still a bit unclear if at some point they get removed, what happens with the old releases which had the exception, and the apps which used those releases. Common sense tells us that the old releases will always have those exceptions, but could somebody just fork one of the old releases, if/when the exceptions get removed from a new release...)

Anyway. I won't be letting these thoughts bother me. I'll be happily using GtkD from now on! Thanks.

I'll look into defining what temporary means sometime soon, probably later tonight.

Anyway, glad to have you back kaarna! Sorry for not having gotten around to altering the license earlier!

I have added a new license to GtkD in the COPYING file in the latest svn commit (682).

The license contains the LGPL Version 3 with a few exceptions.

Please let me know how you all feel in regards to the added exceptions. If every agrees to them, they will be included in our next release.


Looks good.
