TO ALL MODDERS AND FUTURE MODDERS

by Gatharoth » Wed Apr 04, 2012 04:05

Because of Celeon's request for a Public license for your mods. And after reading about minecraft using Jejia's mesecon in minecraft.

I implore you! Use the GNU(GPL) Licensing, or any other CopyLeft licenses! As this will stop others from profiting off your work, but allow you to keep it public.

Now, I can understand wanting to use the WTFPL license, it's simple, and fulfills Celeron's request easily. But with the GNU license, you will at least know that people cannot profit off your work.

If you see "make money with" as a part of "profit of", you are wrong (the GPL allows making money), but thanks for rising awareness.

the gpl says you can sell compiled open source. I could compile and sell minetest, as long as I distribute the source code with it. And there are ways around including the source.

Yup..
