Relicensing as CPAL-1.0 #256
Comments
@jamal2362 I'm glad you are back, truly. This is really off topic here however and I'm going to delete those posts once you moved them in #257. Feel free to quote the part you think is a lie over there. I'm also most pleased that Fulguris credit is now at the very top of Styx README, this is definitely a step in the right direction. |
@jamal2362 of course you can add the badge back – Styx was never unlisted at my end (I always hoped for a positive outcome for all of us). I've re-enabled auto-updates as well as removed the NoSourceSince flag right now, these changes will be reflected publicly with the next sync tomorrow. And shall we all stay objective, without attacks? We managed that quite fine in the other issue. Stéphane might not have used the "ideal diplomatic phrasing" (after all, the 3 of us are rather the practical types, aren't we, and not politicians "blowing perfumed air"). So let's work together in a friendly way if we can 😍 No need to unroll all the details again – we've already discussed and cleared out the misunderstandings, didn't we? That said: Please count me among those people happy about your (and Styx') return! Wishing us all a cooperative and fruitful future! |
Thank you for letting me add the badge again! |
Sorry for the really late reply, I am still not having too much time (and what I had I put into contributing to another app, but this is has been paused for quite a while as well....) Anyway, I'm very happy to see this is solved and there is progress again! |
Motivated by the months long abuse of Fulguris by Styx I'm looking at relicensing Fulguris to CPAL-1.0. This is done in the hope that future rebranding efforts would at the very least contribute to Fulguris success by enforcing prominent public attribution most likely in the form of a "Powered by Fulguris" notice on application start-up.
Now relicensing is happening one way or another. The only question is whether most of the source code is going to be relicensed or simply the parts I own sole copyright over.
I'll be trying to reach most contributors asking their permissions to relicense existing source files inherited from Lightning.
@anthonycr Your blessing is obviously needed. I recall trying to contact you in the past when I first started working on your code base adding keyboard shortcuts and hoping to contribute it back but somehow that was unsuccessful. Hopefully this time I can reach you. I won't even bother trying to contact other contributors if you are not happy with this. In which case I would just go ahead with partial relicensing.
@Helium314 Would you be happy with that?
