[Typo3-dev] TER License Problem

but under the current conditions you can't build an extension that holds
libraries used by your extension and upload to ter.
Only one extension to point out (which I use) is rtehtmlarea (bsd
license, not gpl) and there are many other more, I'm sure.

I don't want to kickstart a flamewar. But one thing is broken, the usage
of the ter or the terms of the ter.

I'm also no fan of proprietary formats. I only describe the facts of the
current TER terms.
