The way you put it non copyleft licenses are just there for bait and switch. I don’t know any case where that happened where there was outside contributions.

- monocasa 6y agoOracle reproprietized all of Solaris, including the outside contributions up to that point. And I assume that Apple has support for these instructions this whole thread is about in their toolchains, so if that's the same version that's in xcode, reproprietization is already happening. Leaving reproprietization on the table is the whole point of non-copyleft open source.
- legulere 6y agoSolaris was released under a copyleft license (CDDL). How did they do that. When I google it I find your comment as the first result.
- monocasa 6y agoThey required a copyright assignment as well. They then re licensed everything as proprietary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc&t=2281s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc&t=2281s
