Hello, One of my friends told me about what is hapenning with the nginx. I was happy since I knew that the current model could lead to something bad. What I was the most interested in was if the project's license hase changed. A non-copyleft license allows a company to take everything from the upstream and add stuff to it without sharing the changes. That is for example what happened to anonaddy.com (addy.io), originally licensed under MIT (x11) license.
That is why I suggest that the license should be changed so that it holds some copyleft. As a starting point I suggest the Mozilla Public License 2.0, which is considered a weak copyleft license. I think that this aligns with the project's mission: "[...] no longer see nginx as a free and open source project developed and maintained for the public good." "The goal is to keep nginx development free from arbitrary corporate actions." In my opinion the stronger the copyleft the better (MPL<GPL<AGPL). What do you think about this? kind regards ersjt -- nginx-devel mailing list nginx-devel@freenginx.org https://freenginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx-devel
