Here's Github repo: https://github.com/dotnet https://github.com/dotnet. Wow, these things are being released under MIT licence - who would have thought .Net would be more "free-er" than Java?

- e12e 12y agoIt's amazing that there's not a concrete word about license (and patent grant) choice in the press release, or on the page(s) for MS Visual Studio Community Edition. Someone should remind MS that we've been burned before by "open source" that turned out to be "open for what fits MS, not what fits you". All that said, I'm happy to see this under MIT!
- drdaeman 12y agoGiven that the primary issue with .NET/CLR ecosystem adoption was not lack of implementations but unclear situation with software patents, I don't think MIT is a wise option. It's certainly up to Microsoft, but anything with an explicit patent grant would be a much better idea.
