epiphany-extensions license

[Reinout van Schouwen <reinouts gnome org>]

Hi all,

Some of you may have read Joe Shaw's blog entry here: 
http://joeshaw.org/2007/08/29/484

He says that he thinks that the requirement for epiphany extensions to
be GPL'ed is a bit too strict, and that any GPL-compatible license
should be ok.

I'd like to formulate a proper reply to Joe's question, but I'm not
quite sure how to proceed and I'm no expert in this area.

The COPYING.README file from epiphany-extensions gives a clue:

http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/epiphany-extensions/trunk/COPYING.README?view=markup

I wonder if 'linked to epiphany at runtime' also holds for Python
extensions. Can anyone shed some light on this?

regards,
