Hi - can someone tell me which newsgroup to go to ask questions about
licensing.
EG 1) can we distribute Eclipse with our commercial 'for-money' product?
2) If we develop an Eclipse plug in do we need to make it open source?

Thanks Bruce

Thanks Eric.

On 1) just to be clear - that is to say we can bundle the Eclipse
distribution with our own distribution *rather* than asking the end user to
download and install Eclipse from eclipse.org before installing our
product. -Is that correct?

Thanks for your input.
