@wmeissner Y U no MIT/BSD? /cc@hiro_asari -
@bascule@wmeissner@hiro_asari Y U HATE LGPL and harass developers about it? -
@postmodern_mod3@wmeissner@hiro_asari because people are telling me they literally can't use my software because of FFI's license :P -
@bascule@wmeissner@hiro_asari they probably confusing LGPL with GPL/AGPL, or are afraid of getting Stallman cooties. -
@postmodern_mod3@wmeissner@hiro_asari this is not the case, I can assure you -
@bascule@wmeissner@hiro_asari how can you assure me? *GPL does not put restrictions on usage, only re-distribution. -

@bascule looking into when that happened. In the same commit, they stripped Evans copyright notice. Anyway, this raises some concerns :( -
@raggi@bascule 5 years ago: https://github.com/ffi/ffi/commit/c191200510b7fd30d85135c39162274ddda29d1b …, then 1 year after: https://github.com/ffi/ffi/commit/281e656ccba5c06702eee9d69dd83e1680d22e55 … IANAL but can you change BSD to LGPL? -
@bascule@luislavena@raggi Only if all contributors agree, I think... -
@godfat@bascule@luislavena which effectively means the change (if not an agreed handover) is actually both fraudulent and pointless -
@raggi@godfat@bascule@luislavena Except that@wmeissner wrote most of ruby-ffi himself and has maintained it for years with little help. -
@headius@raggi@godfat@bascule@wmeissner not playing passive-aggressive here or pointing blame, did what I could to contrib, again IANAL. - 1 more reply
