As far as I understand,
if an application loads a GPL-licensed bundle,
this application has to be GPL
Then here is a theoretical question:
1. if a GPL-licensed bundle is automatically loaded through GSAppKitUserBundles,
do all applications need to be GPL ?
I guess probably not.
2. If a GPL-licensed bundle provide a category for NSApplication,
say [NSApplication -loadGPLBundle].
then the GPL-license bundle is loaded through GSAppKitUnserBundles
and an application use this method (-loadGPLBundle),
does this application need to be GPL-license ?
The issue is that the application do not need this bundle to
compile and execute.
It only use it when it is available.
I am just curious about how the GPL propagates through bundle
through automatical loading.
Thanx.
