[Gluster-users] Fwd: License option for the GlusterFS

[Zhou Ganhong]

Hi, Anand Avati
      Thanks a lot.
       Then my understanding is that both GlusterFS server/client codes can
be licensed under LGPL. Is it right?
       So all the links are not accurate. Could you send out a reference
link or document to describe above statement?
