Hi,
Please, I would like to have a confirmation (or answer) about Swordfish modules and Users modules copyright;
I know that Swordfish modules can (are intended to) be used in commercial products. The produced firmwares can be sold without royalties as long as no source codes (of modules) are themself sold.
But What about users modules published on the Wiki or on the forum ? Do they have the same copyright ?
Can we use them in commercial products? (I think specially to Steven Tactile Screen driver, but I want an answer for all modules)
Regards
Octal
About Modules copyrights?

I personally am happy for any of my libraries to be used commercially for free, with the usual disclaimer about liabilities. I can't speak for others though. Maybe there should be several categories on the wiki - people could post in the relevant section, depending on their licence conditions. Could we adopt standard open source licence conditions?

Thank you Steven ... this is very generous and very kind of you.Steven wrote:I personally am happy for any of my libraries to be used commercially for free, ...
Standard open source licenses are a bit tricky ... GPL for example let you use open source in your projects but you have to delploy also modified sources...Steven wrote: ...Could we adopt standard open source licence conditions?
LGPL solves that but has a lot of tricky things about final copyright... I do not know a lot about other licenses, but I know that they are very ambigus
