That sounds like closed source. I don't see how there could be a gray area here. Either I can compile Atom from source, or it's not open source.

- malka 13y agoYou could be able to compile it from sources, but fotking could be forbidden for example
- grrowl 13y agoBy GitHub (and Git's) own structure, everything is forkable. It would be very unlike them to prevent forking on one of thier own "special" repos, but in the worst case you could still: git clone git@github.com:atom.io/core.git git remote add fork git@github.com:grrowl/atom-core.git git push -u fork master
- gojomo 13y ago'source available to compile' ≠ 'open source' http://opensource.org/osd http://opensource.org/osd
- click170 13y agoI completely agree with you. But at the same time, there's the Android/AOSP situation.
