- lproven 1y agoIt is, which is interesting because it's a fork of B2G which is explicitly FOSS under a licence written by former CEO Mitch Baker herself. How can a FOSS project based around Linux and Firefox be picked up and closed? That ought to be impossible -- this isn't BSD-licensed stuff.
- fabrice_d 1y agoGecko is MPL licensed, and KaiOS abides by that license. The front-end part of FxOS was always under an Apache 2 license, much to the dismay of some employees, but that was forced by commercial partners to allow them to differentiate while keeping their changes private.
