Hi, I'm currently writing some documentation for Kotlin/Native bindings of GTK4 and I was wondering what license are they using and if I can port some of them to the K/N bindings documentation that is currently licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0.

Hello, Roberto. The license is GPL. See Section 1 Prerequisite and License.

I see, I have to update to version 4.0 to be compatible: https://creativecommons.org/2015/10/08/cc-by-sa-4-0-now-one-way-compatible-with-gplv3/

Btw have you considered using GFDL instead of GPL? It seems more appropriate for documentation than GPL and CC-BY-SA 3.0 is already compatible with it.

Thank you for your suggestion. I'll consider that as soon as possible.

I announced the following in the README.md.

New licenses, one of which is GFDL1.3 for documents and the other is GPL3 for programs, are under consideration. The decision will be made on 15/April/2023.
