Hi! As nice as it looks but unfortunately, I feel like it should be pointed out that only your wrapper is Apache 2 licensed. Highcharts itself is only free to use for non-profit/non-commercial applications and requires purchase of a license otherwise, see: http://shop.highsoft.com/highcharts.html
As long as a project meets the requirements for a free license or one can afford buying a commercial license, that's fine. Unfortunately, it opens a trap for developers that are less cautious and rely on licenses of libraries without checking full dependencies before adding them to their projects. Highcharts may be well-known but I haven't heard of it before. There will be others who see your library but don't know they may require a license for Highcharts, so they may fall for the license. It always disappoints me a bit if I see something published under a really (even commercially) free license but then realize that its dependencies are unfree. Don't get me wrong, your project looks really nice and useful but the license issue should be handled more carefully. A short but prominent notice on your project homepage would be enough. Sorry for spoiling the party. :) Regards, Daniel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
