When I heard about this project, they were using Skyrim Script Extender code without permission[0] (and denying it) and made a lot of money from it (which the SKSE people feared could get them in legal trouble with Bethesda). I hope this has been rectified since?

I vaguely remember something about this years ago but I do believe it's been resolved. Check their discord server about the drama.

  No offense but telling someone to go check a discord server is like saying "go google it" but you can't even use a search engine. It's worse than useless it's actively harmful to informing people. Provide details or don't bother getting involved.

SKSE is reverse engineering of Skyrim, with a heavy amount of code that can easily be argued to be infringement if Bethesda wanted to. This means that if anyone has a bone in ownership, it's Bethesda, not SKSE. Don't release mods or tools without open licenses for content you don't own. It's a conflict of interest. By SKSE "fearing it could be used for profit" they are harming themselves. Open license, ignore it. You don't have any responsibilities of how it's used. That is in part why open licenses were created. Negation of liability. That said, yes, the Skyrim together project is a money pit that last I checked is unmaintained yet makes thousands a month. With a moderation team that is none too friendly and doesn't take kindly to legitimate criticisms.

  The Skyrim Together team has since disbanded and reformed a few times, with the team behind this project being different from the team of the previous project. The team behind Reborn does not accept donations. The Reborn project is a complete rewrite of the "Skyrim Together" project.
