What license is pwnat under? #16
Comments
Sidebar: MIT would be really nice, since I'm working on a commercial project. |
Aaand, no sooner do I write the above second comment than I noticed the 'COPYING-pingtunnel' file, which does in fact have a license in it: GPL. I had been expecting a file named 'LICENSE' and had not yet gone through each file in turn. I run a small, 2-person startup. GPL means that I can't safely use this code as an element of our software, even as a library, since I can't afford to spend money on lawyers to tell me exactly what I can and can't do, and I can't afford to take a chance on the EFF or GNU organization suing me as part of their "enforce the license so others don't abuse it" efforts. (Unlikely that they would go after a small startup, but I can't take the risk and the risk would grow if we became successful.) Is there any chance that I could get a version for our use that is under a different license? |
Code could use MIT-0 instead (https://github.com/aws/mit-0) and docs could use CC0 <3 |
pwnat uses code from a 3rd party project (udptunnel), so that license is not from me but rather the 3rd party project. |
I'd like to use this as an external library for some Racket code I'm writing. What license are you using so that I can be sure to comply?
