The problem with dual licensing is that you cannot ensure that everybody |
| 11 |
publishes enhancements that are also dual licensed. Bad people will publish |
| 12 |
extensions under one license only and thus make the enhancement unusable for |
| 13 |
others. |

For this reason it seems that dual licensing is not the solution. |
