I used to work for a large publicly traded company on an embedded firmware team and all the way down to (I think even my direct manager) we were strictly told we were never allowed to use GPL software for anything.
It's unfortunate, we were actually paying consultants quite a lot of money to continuously backport some (permissively licensed) open source software to our platform. It seems like it would have been way cheaper to get our changes upstream but the idea of sharing source code just wouldn't fly. --Stephen On Fri, Jul 11, 2025 at 04:45:50PM -0400, Stuff Received wrote: > On 2025-07-11 16:22, emu...@disroot.org wrote (in part): > > Since there is no mention of GPL in the document, it would appear that > > Bosch deliberately avoided components with GPL licensing. > > Likely, as they seem to prefer MIT licences.
