Fair-code is not a software license. It describes a software model where software:

  • is generally free to use and can be distributed by anybody
  • has its source code openly available
  • can be extended by anybody in public and private communities
  • is commercially restricted by its authors

    It’s GPL, they have to also provide the source. And you benefit from all the rights they do.

    They don’t provide the source.

    This is not a new thing, it’s been happening for years.

    If OBS used such a license and reaped all the benefits would you still contribute to them?

    Yes, I would. I’m a user, not a corporation that wants to repackage it.

      If they don’t obey GPL what makes you think they’d obey BSL?
