Bioclipse is a Java-based open source project based on the
Eclipse Rich Client Platform with its state-of-the-art plugin
architecture. This gives Bioclipse a huge advantage over other
systems, as it can easily be extended for adding
functionality in any direction.

<h3>EPL-GPL Statement</h3>
<p>
The GNU Public License (GPL) is a bit special here, and is considered not to be compatible with the EPL. Indeed, a EPL licensed plugin may not use GPL code, which is why the bc_biojava plugin is licensed GPL.
Making a GPL project based on EPL code is considered not possible too, while the EPL puts some restrictions on the licensing patents, which are incompatible with the GPL.
However, the Bioclipse project considers plugins not to extend the Bioclipse platform, consisting of the bioclipse + com.tools.logging plugins, and are not considered a derivative product, and we hereby approve GPL licensed plugins for Bioclipse.
