Why not just change the license to GPLv3 for the upcoming version?
- throw_m239339 5y agoGPL for students and open source projects, paid license for orgs and companies. GPL itself isn't really a way to get paid for your work.
- trexd 5y agoI was speaking more to preventing companies from using your open source work, but I guess in this instance the emphasis is on getting paid.
- gcampos 5y agoThe truth is that it become a race to the bottom with a lot of open source projects, specially the ones that are not hard to replicate. If the author made the project GPL, someone else would create a similar library with a more permissive license, which would end up taking the market and making the original library irrelevant.
