Re: powerEXT - Clarifications from the author

Nathan,

either you don't want to read what is written or you don't understand ...

Anybody can use EXT JS or powerEXT under the terms of GNU GPLv3, so there 
is 
NO [or not] ... IBM may chose to write their entierely internal system in
EXT JS - but if they choose to sell it to MS - they have to pay EXT JS 349 
USD !

Yes regardingr ExtJS, according to their web site:

http://www.extjs.com/products/license.php

If you don't want to offer your software under GPL, then you need the 
ExtJS commercial license.  I gather the same applies to the use of 
PowerExt - but Henrik can answer that.

Whether you distribute your software [or not] is irrelevant according 
ExtJS - just whether your software uses ExtJS, and whether you offer a GPL 
license to your software - otherwise you need the ExtJS commercial 
license.
