I don't know the answer but my feeling is that extensions can be
released under the license you want. This needs to be checked of

Hi,
Following this thread and looking for some more insight. Considering
that we are trying to get support to develop XWiki extensions and
share
them with the community, under what license must we release these
supposed, so far, extensions?
A simple example: a company/public body contract a work with our
group.
We would like to solve the ICT part of the problem with a solution
based
on XWiki. But we want to tell the client that any extension
constructed
over XWiki must be shared with the community. What license must we
propose to the client to accept? 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
