Can I let my users download Mibble for themselves?
Yes, if your code is already licensed under the GNU GPL you may let your users download Mibble as an optional plugin to your software. No, if your application is not licensed under the GNU GPL it is not legal to encourage users to download Mibble separately and linking it with your software. Any code calling into the Mibble library, either directly or through introspection, must be licensed under the GNU GPL. See also Q12 for a list of the alternatives to a GNU GPL licensed version of Mibble.
