[Adium-devl] AIHyperlinks framework (was Re: Community versus ego?)

[Stephen Holt]

Well, yes and no.  It's in its own framework because it very much is  
its own little world, and doesn't depend on any other code in the  
project. So, potentially, it'd be trivial for another coca based  
project to snatch it up and reuse it.

However, to my knowledge, no one else has done that.  Were I wiser  
when I first wrote it, I'd of given the code a more liberal license,  
like BSD or LGPL, to make my intent clearer.

I'll leave it to the active developers to decide its fate, but that  
was my rational behind setting it aside from the rest of the project.
