Re: [developers] WAQF GPL



here is the English translation of Waqf

http://www.ojuba.org/wiki/doku.php/waqf/license

I guess WAQF is GPL compatible because of the this
"if it's harmful then it can't be under waqf in the first place"
quote
The user may use the work for any good purpose and he may not use it
to harm others or violate the permissive principles of Islam^[7].
Notice that any work that is most likely harmful can't be put under
Waqf in the first place.
