[Biojava-dev] [Biojava-l] Leadership

[George Waldon]

Hi Scooter,

This is not so simple because Jalview is under the GNU General Public License while Biojava is under the Lesser GPL. The simplest way might be to have the authors of the part of Jalview you are interested in to release their code under the LGPL.

Best,
George
