So the "virality" doesn't apply only to extensions. In the case of
xwiki this means: macros, plugins, code snippets in pages,
applications, extensions (a la XEclipse).

Hi all
I'm totally confused. :-(
If I use XWIKI, which is published under LGPL, am I allowed to
write a
module/plugin and not publish it or do I have to publish it under
LGPL too?
AFAIK, yes you can write extensions and not publish them under an open
source license.
If you make any modification to the current code though you'll have to
share it with the community under the LGPL license.
At least this is my understanding (I'm not a license expert).
Thanks

Thanks for any clarification

PS: I know this is a standard question, but seriously I did not
found an
easy, understandable, concise and without long follow-ups about
whether the
interpretation is right or not, answer to this in hours of
searching. Is it
me or is (L)GPL one of the most complicated license nowadays?
