Summarize your change.
This commit is a proposal to harmonize the license for 2 helper classes.
Describe the reason for the change.
The previous license for these 2 helper classes is not an open-source license, so the project is unable to distribute these files with the project This commit is a proposal to harmonize the license for 2 helper classes.
Context: To comply with the Blackmagic SDK license, we had left the original Blackmagic license for the 2 utility classes that were adapted from the Blackmagic SDK example code. Now since this is not an open-source license, we cannot legally add these utility classes to the Open RV ASWF repository.
Proposal: To resolve this issue, we propose to remove the Blackmagic license from those 2 helper classes based on the rationale:
- Those files define 2x C++ helper classes that merely wrap the Blackmagic SDK interface
- Those files do not contain any Intellectual Property that needs to be protected.
Please let us know if you believe this is an acceptable solution or not. Thanks
