Isn't SDK licensing pretty normal, outside of open source?
- yjftsjthsd-h 9y ago> outside of open source Yes? By definition, if it's not open source, then you're looking at a proprietary license of some sort.
- sliverstorm 9y agoWhat I meant is the outside-of-companies open source community. It's not weird for a company to license their SDK, no matter what it's for. Par for the course rather.
- mhluongo 9y agoThat's not by definition at all- a work can be open source with a "proprietary license of some sort", or closed source, with source that's liberally licensed- but never published.
- yjftsjthsd-h 9y ago"Shared source"?
- ISL 9y agoThe trouble is that the FIT file specification, in addition to the parsing libraries, is behind the license. It is possible to state the definition of a file format without opening any proprietary code.
