Hackaday comments were hypothesizing that they outsource tool development to some other company.
- Tomte 6y agoWhy would they change an EULA clause for that?
- corty 6y agoTo signal potential open source contributors that there is no danger of being sued for their work. Too many vendors have used the fact or even just the accusation of reverse-engineering or other non-EULA-compliant behaviour to suppress OSS.
- Tomte 6y agoThat's a valid reason. But not what I asked. I don't see a connection to "outsource tool development to some other company". If I commission some work from another company, this company doesn't receive, modify or extend my software under the standard EULA. They do so under our contract.
- inamberclad 6y agoThe idea was that some outside company had a say in what went into the EULA.
