[winswitch] Newbie question about XPRA HTML5 Licensing

[tzahi ml]

Collide means, that I have some javascript files which are proprietary to
me and I am not yet feeling ready to release them as open source (unless
advantageous).
So if there will be a GPL license in the same process with them (i.e. xpra
html5 client files), it will force me to release them as an open source
license.
IANAL as well, and unless I missed something, but from my limited
understanding it seems there are no GPL client side javascript libraries in
the HTML5 client libraries sources (some Apache, some MIT, MPL but no GPL).

Please correct me if I am wrong...
