- callahad 12y agoUpon skimming, it looks like it still retains some clauses like: "The name of Your Product (or of Your modified version of This Product) must not contain the name TrueCrypt [...] nor any other names confusingly similar to the name TrueCrypt" and "All graphics contained in This Product (logos, icons, etc.) must be removed from Your Product (or from Your modified version of This Product) and from any associated materials." ...but that actually doesn't seem all that insurmountable. Hm...
- JohnTHaller 12y agoTrueCrypt 7.1a - the one with the actual functionality - wasn't released under this license. It was released under the earlier one. And I don't think it allows for this version or later ala GPL. I'm not sure of this, though.
- WatchDog 12y agoWell could you not simply take 7.2 and patch it back to something resembling 7.1a, thus keeping both the license and the functionality?
- shawnz 12y agoOnly if you write those patches without referring to the 7.1a source, which would be difficult since thousands of lines have been removed.
