Hi Hadrian, Well if I have an Idea for a project and put my code to Github and eventually conflict with a patent of another company. By committing that to a Github repo I could be involved in a lawsuite. With Labs this couldn’t happen, is this not correct? I know that officially releasing is not possible.
If this is not true, I should adjust what I tell people immediately ;-) Chris Am 08.03.17, 20:02 schrieb "Hadrian Zbarcea" <hzbar...@gmail.com>: That is incorrect and a moot point since one cannot release from labs@. There is nothing to protect. It's a bit frustrating, because this seems yet another repeat of conversations that took place multiple times. I suspect that I am not the only one who gave up on the PMC figuring out what the differentiator is or should be.
