Trying to get this result indirectly by using a license that's not compatible with the GPLv3+ not only is a round-about way to go about it, but it's not even clear if it would be legal because it's not clear whether it's legal to distribute ELisp packages with a license incompatible with the GPLv3+. > But if it does not use the interface then maybe it could. Indeed, but those ELisp packages which don't make use of an Emacs-specific interface are pretty rare. Stefan
