Change of License - ydotool
Ref: https://github.com/ReimuNotMoe/ydotool
The author has changed from MIT to AGPLv3 which is on the 'good' list
but I am required to post the change here for comment.
The author has also declared an intention to apply for a copyright in
China. Does that change anything? I'm guessing not.
Comments?
Here is the pertinent paragraph:
Licensing
The license has been changed to AGPLv3, to stop large tech companies
from modifying this project and only use internally.
In order to (hopefully) stop these free software license violations in
China, the project is going to apply for a software copyright (软件著作权)
in China. Doing so will give me a way to sue them.
If you want to contribute to this project from now on, you need to
agree that your work will be copyrighted by me (only in China).
If you are a former contributor and you don't want your work to be
copyrighted by me in China, please open an issue to let me know. I
will then replace your work with a clean room implementation.
If you know a free software license violation of this project, please
don't hesitate to let me know.
ydotool will always be a free software.
