    I think it's the closest to what I want, thank you! One more question: about EPL: if I release a library under EPL + Exhibit A (GPL compatibility), and then someone changes the library, and uses the changed code in their GPL(2/3) project, will I be able to take their changes and merge them back into my EPL library (of course, preserving their copyright / authorship etc)?

  • Please see the EPL2 FAQ question "1.4. What are the major changes between EPL-1.0 and EPL-2.0?". The answer implies that EPL-1.0 had module-level copyleft, but EPL-2.0 switched to file-level copyleft. Commented Jan 6 at 6:04
  • @ruben2020, the phrasing of the license stopped using the term "module", but I don't really see a change in the intent of the license. Commented Jan 6 at 8:06
