Re: [Mono-list] Xamarin Open Source License
This is a mailing list for the mono community and isn’t the right place to ask questions pertaining to Xamarin’s business and licensing. Probably you should contact them via one of the methods here: http://xamarin.com/faq.

Re: [Mono-list] Xamarin Open Source License
It would be nice if Xamarin took a bit more pity on open source developers and hobby developers. I've been using a business version, at work, for Xamarin.iOS. I would like to explore other platforms, continuing to educate myself, and maybe work on some open source stuff. Even the indie licenses are pretty steep for non-commercial development. At the least it'd be nice if you had access to all platforms for non-commercial use when you purchased a license for commercial use on anything.

If you don't have any luck on this mailing list, I'll also suggest the Xamarin community (just go to xamarin.com and login to community) and also call up their main phone number. My understanding, based on what you've said and shown here, is that you're a developer of an open source project, and it appears that Xamarin sometimes offers free licenses to developers of non-commercial open source projects. But when you submitted the request, they rejected you. And you think you should be eligible. Good luck... Hope it works out... ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list

Thanks for the quick reply.

I don't quite understand your question. What project do you want to contribute to? Mono sources are at https://github.com/mono/mono and the open source licenses are in the LICENSE file there... Since there are many different parts with different licenses, it might not be entirely easy to understand, but if you need clarification on something specific, ask again ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
[Mono-list] Xamarin Open Source License
Is there an Open Source License, and who does it get? I appealed at http://resources.xamarin.com/open-source-contributor.html my project: https://github.com/limada/limada my profile: https://github.com/lytico After some weeks and asking again 2 times per e-mail, I got this (auto-generated?) answer: "Thank you for your interest in contributing to the mobile C# open source developer community. Xamarin's open source contributor subscription offer is limited to active developers on established open source projects. Based on your current activity on this project, it does not appear that you are eligible for a non-commercial subscription." ... etc. etc. So, is there that open source program?
