Hi,

   

I'm note sure if I'm asking teh question in the correct forum. sorry if it is not.

   

In the SW we are developing we want to use the EmFile SW to access the SDCard (so it would be linkned and distributed with our proprietery code). Their license has a open source related term that is not clear to me.

------------------------------------

   

My question is on the "may be". does anyone know what this actually means? Does EMFile includes or not open source components? If yes, which components are these and what is their license? How this impact my proprietery code?

   

Has anyone being thrgouht that?

   

Thanks in advanced fir the help,
