What I meant by this is that choosing an opensource license it to some extend already a political act.
- lorean_victor 7y agowell it used to be, but that battle seems to have been largely won on some level too, at least all involved parties now realize the value of open-source (though some may just treat it as a PR asset rather than a platform for inclusive innovation and progress).
- cies 7y agoI mean subtilities like going with a GPLv2 (+ commercial license), LGPLv2/3, GPLv3, BSD-like, CC0 or WTFPL... Or a combination! There you are already cross into politics IMHO. You made a statement, to a greater of lesser degree by choosing one (or more) of the mentioned licenses.
