- DetroitThrow 1y agoThis was less than a month ago, so the README may not simply have been updated yet then, rather than the frustratingly large number of projects that are source available but want to brand themselves as something they are not.
- donohoe 1y agoFair point, but it takes less than 10 minutes imho to update a README. Perhaps less than 1. And they took the time elsewhere to update other docs. So it’s fair criticism when a month later it’s still saying things that are no longer true.
- jamietanna 1y agoIf we want to be very picky it is "open source" not "Open Source". The capitalised term indicates it's a license approved by the Open Source Initiative, which is commonly used as the basis of "actual open source" (I do agree that this gets a little murky, especially with folks who don't understand the nuance, which is a large percentage of folks talking about this) I do agree that not calling something even "open source" if it's under a license like the FSL is best
