Can you explain how the IP terms work? When people get binaries through the store, are they able to redisribute them to other people? - Do they have the technical ability to copy? - Is there anything in the MS Store terms that prohibit such copying? I have no idea what the answers are here, but I think it's always an important question when considering distribution methods. (That's all assuming that qgis continues to be licensed under GPL2!) _______________________________________________ QGIS-Developer mailing list [email protected] List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
