[Ask YC] - Licensing opinion
What am I trying to achieve.
I am trying to sell licenses for code which solves a common pain point in web-application development. I want to
1. Allow open source applications to use it in the webapp without paying me.
2. Charge a license fee for non OS applications.
How can I license to achieve this? Would QPL be a good license for use here?
- bdfh42 18y agoSimple straightforward dual licensing should cover it. License the code under the GPL and then also offer a commercial license for user who want to add it to commercial products or use the code within a commercial environment - you can offer a paid for support agreement as well to the latter group.
- shabda 18y agoCan't everyone just choose to use it under GPL then?
