Licensing

Open michaelhkay opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

As IKVM users we're interested in all attempts to revive this code, especially if you can get it working for .NET 5 Core. It's been reported elsewhere that you've changed the licensing conditions, could you please explain your rationale for this, and explain whether you actually have authority from the original copyright holders to do this?

Further references for anyone of interest, as the changes are most likely NOT legal. The fork ikvm-revived doesn't introduce that risk.

Please note that anyone wanted to run Java GUI based applications like Minecraft launchers on IKVM should skip that ikvm-revived project right away, as it removed support for this and the developer is very hostile. He doesn't care about you and your problems. He will close your issues right away doesn't care even a little bit about your feelings.
