April 21, 2003 - MuTerminal goes from GPL to OBOS!
|
|
|
|
Thanks to the effort of BiPolar and the generosity of Kazuho Okui and
|
|
Takashi Murai we have had donated to OBOS the sources for MuTerminal.
|
|
MuTerminal was formerly under the GPL license. The complete MuTerminal
|
|
package as it was originally released on April 2, 2000 (version 2.3) is
|
|
preserved in this directory in the original form that I obtained from
|
|
bebits.

Hello!
|
|
|
|
I am a (very) happy user of your mighty program: Muterminal 2.0 for
|
|
BeOS.
|
|
My name is Oscar Lesta. I'm Argentinian (just to inform you, not to
|
|
make you feel sorry for me, he he!).
|
|
|
|
I've being using MuTerminal for a while (I have even made some small
|
|
changes in the GUI, hiding/unhiding of the scrollbar, rearrangement of
|
|
menu items, fixed some localization issues and things like that) and I
|
|
think that it is a great replacement for Be's original Terminal app.
|
|
|
|
I really don't know if you are still developing this program, but I
|
|
have to ask you:
|
|
Is there any chance of that you change the license from GPL to MIT/BSD?
|
|
|
|
If you do so, then the OpenBeOS Team (http://open-beos.sourceforge.net)
|
|
could use your app as a Terminal Replacement in the future release of
|
|
their O.S.
|
|
|
|
In case you aren't developing it anymore: maybe you can "donate" your
|
|
code to beunited.org (http://www.beunited.org). They are making
|
|
standars for BeOS compatible O.S., and continuing the development of
|
|
several applications for BeOS that original authors have donated to the
|
|
BeOS Community.
|
|
|
|
About the license: I understand that part of your code depends on
|
|
libconv, which is under GPL, but that part can be replaced with they
|
|
counterpart from OpenBeOS, with is under a MIT/BSD like license.
|
|
|
|
Thanks for your time, and thanks again for MuTerm!
|
|
|
|
Your,
|
|
|
|
Oscar.

Hi,
|
|
|
|
Now, Muterm's licence is GPL, but, I'm not use other GPL code in Muterm.
|
|
So, I can change Muterm`s licence to MIT/BSD/AS IS and other.
|
|
|
|
If you (and OpenBeOS team) adopt Muterm to default terminal on OpenBeOS,
|
|
I will welcome it.
|
|
|
|
I want you to leave only the credit of me and Takashi Murai in that case.
|
|
|
|
Please contact me, if some may otherwise be able to be helped. However,
|
|
since my work is busy recently, I think that coding is hardly made.
|
|
|
|
Thanks,
|
|
