AGPLv3

Newer versions of ImplicitCAD are AGPLv3. It would be nice if this tool was also the same license.

Sorry to hijack your issue @julialongtin, but do you know if the difference in licenses would prevent a package containing both ExplicitCAD and ImplicitCAD being built/distributed? Same goes for Qt?

nope, it wouldn't. afaik, implicitcad is used from it's external interface by explicitcad.

speaking of hijacking issues, you really should start using the implicitsnap binary instead. that way you have an implicitcad daemon to talk to, and can stop starting and stopping implicitcad.

and thanks for taking this on. :)

It is. Currently ExplicitCAD just calls ImplicitCAD as seperate process.

Hmm, that sounds nice. But before making any serious code-changes I want to get CI up and running :)
