Bountysource should allow project owners to delist their projects. Not doing so will simply lead to trademark and other infringement actions. Just because the code is licensed as open source doesn't mean you get to use the project's brand for your money making schemes.
- dllthomas 12y agoThere is no infringement, if they are not implying endorsement. Use of trademark to refer to the product is explicitly okay, and there's no other way to refer to that lump of code. If I want to pay someone to add a feature to FLO software I use, that's my right, and the project trying to get in the way of that is in the wrong - morally and possibly legally. The project, of course, has no obligation to accept any patches generated.
