I'm not very good with licensing, but is CC-SA compatible with GPL/MIT Licenses (used by jQuery)?

I was using this for one of my projects (which is based on the GPL license as it makes use of jQuery).

Can you please clarify this for me? Thanks!

Hey mate,

I really don't mind what you do with it as long as you're not selling this on as the key factor in your project.

The licensing I use is inherited from the 280 North 'Aristo' PSD and I checked with the Pinvoke creator if they were happy with this model of licensing and they said that's fine. Maybe review the Aristo PSD license on their website and that will give you more of an explanation?

Thanks,
Tait.

Marking as closed. Less of an issue and more of a question anyway.
