XChat Windows port licensed shareware?
posted by scubacuda on Tuesday August 31, @07:14PM
from the dept.
Open Source Jeroen writes "The main author of XChat, Peter Zelezny, has relicensed a Windows port of the software under a shareware license. Quote: My particular Windows release is not released under GPL. Since people's source (patch) contributions have not stated any terms, I have decided to release this under Shareware, to protect the extra work I have done to make a good Windows release. However, I'll always respect peoples wishes. If someone has contributed some code and want it removed, you only have to ask (mail me personally), and it will be done. If this happens, I'll just rewrite the code myself, AND release it under GPL for your pleasure."
