I recently came across Kendo UI Web, and I was pretty impressed, but I have a question about their licencing. The web version is licensed under the GNU/GPL, which if my understanding is correct, means that I can use it for free as long as I too abide by the GPL. In this case, if I'm using it as a JavaScript library, and I don't modify it, and I use it as part of a commercial product, there should be nothing wrong with that, and unless I need or want support, I legally do not have to pay them. I tried emailing them, and they just referred me to a forum post (which did not answer my question). Does anyone have any experience with this?

Hi Rathu,

Before we can answer your question, we will need more details. 

Can you please specify if you are using the Kendo UI for jQuery components or it is another Kendo UI product? If it is another product, can you please send a link to its product page? 

Also, can you please share the forum post that you mentioned? 

Regards,
