Not to go off subject but I'm going to take a wild guess and say almost 90% of applications built using a framework will be for a commercial purpose, I may be slightly wrong but Non-Commerical software is going to be referred to as "self use" ...

You'd have to have a license in such a way that the derivative works can be sold. I've never and will never make a contribution to a project that I can't profit off. Coding is a job and as such I make sure to contribute to the things that make my job easier, and that's it.
I see what you mean. It's just such a fine line between selling the framework and using it for a client that it could be interpreted either way. I personally don't have the financial ability to hire a lawyer to write up a license for me, so I may just have to settle for the GPL. In the end that will probably be the best thing for the software.

I'll look into the GPL a little more and I'll make a decision on if I think that's best for Dingo.
