I like the licence, and it is for me open source in spirit if not in letter, but there is a case that could cause problems : what if you sell services for a closed source version of defold ?

- frankvdwaal 2y agoYou'd first have to make proprietary changes, which you are not allowed to release, and so there's nobody to sell those services to.
- RandallBrown 2y ago> You are free to distribute original or modified (derivative) versions of Defold You just don't have to release the code if you do change it. Although I'm unsure if selling services on your modified game engine, that you released the source of, counts as commercialization.
- simonbw 2y agoIt specifically says you are not allowed to commercialize the engine or a derivative, so that sounds like something that is not intended to be allowed, though I feel like it might take a lawyer to decide whether or not that is technically allowed by the license.
