hey all, checking zrythm out but it doesnt give a license and it’s license file has a whole bunch of licenses?
Open an issue on the project saying “please add a license”.
I forgot to add a license on a project of mine, and someone did this for me, so I looked into it and picked a license to add. I was glad they brought it to my attention!
what license
You ask them to add a license, you don’t suggest a license.
I went with GPL for that one
gpl3? gpl2? agpl3?
Here’s the repo I added the license to: https://github.com/FiniteLooper/UserScripts
why docker and not podman
What? That doesn’t use docker. It’s JavaScript files meant to be used in TamperMonkey
Read the file called README.
The readme and the file referenced in COPYING say AGPLv3
where in readme? cant see it
ik youre not affiliated but any insight on how they have paid versions as rheyre agpl3
Gpl licences don’t mean free as in no payments allowed, but free as in freedom. Many open source, even gpl, software is paid. All agpl, or gpl in general, means is that the code is free to copy as long as one abides by a set of pro-consumer rules while making your changes open too. It gives specific rights to the user or person who copies the project
This means you could build or host this product for free if you wanted, taking the code and setting it up yourself, but their distribution of the code or hosting of their project can include a paid tier or payment upfront. As long as they give all code for the project to people who use it they’re not in violation of the agpl
A piece of software can be under many licenses. Any copyright-worthy section of code can theoretically be under a different license. They seem to specify the license used at the start of each file.
Yeah true this is important to note I should have mentioned that. AGPL seems to be the main license for the project though
