That doesn't answer the question. And has nothing to do with closed source, really.

- tuukkah 6y agoSo C cannot answer the false dichotomy of A or B? Not all closed source software is pay-per-use, but this one is. And can you point me to an open source license that requires pay per use? This move to closed source stops the free use that was possible this far with the open source license. To me, that's a plausible motive. Is there a more significant one?

Developers need a Mapbox account and access token. v2 is available in the same way as v1 -- the project source code is available on Github at https://www.mapbox.com/blog/mapbox-gl-js-v2-3d-maps-camera-api-sky-api-launch https://www.mapbox.com/blog/mapbox-gl-js-v2-3d-maps-camera-a... for open collaboration with the community. New features will be on v2.
- kylebarron 6y agoWhy would the community want to collaborate on a project that's not openly-licensed?
- yorwba 6y agoThere might be a bug that only affects a handful of people and doesn't get prioritized by the company. Then one of those people might want to collaborate on the project just to get their personal pain point fixed.
- tuukkah 6y agoPlease stop the open-washing: v1 was available under the BSD open source license, v2 is not. You are making a fool of your company by acting as if open source is not important.
