- dcrazy 2y agoWas it originally BSD-licensed, or did it start out as the MS Public Source License or whatever it was called? We could go back and check on Codeplex… oh wait.
- caspper69 2y agoAs a sibling poster updated it was some bastardized shared source license that never caught on. Thank goodness MS got over their allergy to open source licenses, as they seem to prefer MIT nowadays for their releases. My apologies for misremembering the details and being snarky. Humble pie eaten and enjoyed. :)
- tamlin 2y agoNo worries, and no humble pie required. Peace, good happiness.
- tamlin 2y agoRotor had it's own license: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_Source_Common_Language_Infrastructure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_Source_Common_Language_... I have various snapshots of the Rotor 1 and 2 sources around and they have the SSCLI license. There is a file that contains BSD licensed code (pal\rotor_pal.h).
- caspper69 2y agoThank you for the follow up. You know after I posted that my thought was am I mistaking their BSD release for a BSD license, and of course I was. The memory isn’t what it used to be.
