Yeah, it feels kind of weird to me too, and really in line with a lot of the decidely-not-open-source new licenses that claim a particular economic advantage for one group (or more usually and specifically, company). I don't feel like it's in the _spirit_ of what this should be all about. Also, although it says commercial use is okay, this https://unsplash.com/license also says "Photos cannot be sold without significant modification", and I'm unclear what that means. If these images would innocently find their way into a Fedora edition that ships on a product that is for sale (a laptop or a phone or an iot device), what would the repercussions be? -- Matthew Miller <[email protected]> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ legal mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
