- dec0dedab0de 4y agoI believe the copyright notice in the Apache license is for the license itself, not for the software it covers. If the software is all rights reserved, then it is not open source. By definition Open Source Software grants some rights to the users. Though I'm sure it was just some boiler plate they stuck in the readme. In any case I really just wanted to point out that it is open source, even though at a glance it looks like it might not be.
