Hi, I'm reviewing a program called mt-daap[1]. This program includes code under the Apple Public Source License Version 2.0 and the GPLv2
In the table of Good Licenses in [2], APSL 2.0 appears as non GPLv2 compatible. Does that means that code under both licenses can't be compiled together? In this case, mt-daap can't be licensed under GPLv2

This combination of incompatible licensed code would make the whole program non-redistributable except by the original authors. They either need to rewrite the APSL or GPL licensed code afaik.
