Hello everybody, Again, I learned from the press that Audacity is changing everything in licensing and "forgot" to let us know why or what they're doing. Now we're asked to give in all our contributions under a murky and uncertainly-worded license agreement that will grant Muse the right to do whatever they want for good.
I contribute to this software since the very beginning and I'm proud that Audacity is such an important tool used in schools around my country and that my translations made it happen. But I'm NOT an employee of Muse and I'll never be. I refuse to sign a CLA giving to these guys completely and perpetual rights over my work, including even taking my contributions and change how it's licensed. I had agreed to work under the gpl license, not to give in my rights for an "agreement" that can't even be clear about how it will be used. If I wanted to get my work used in a proprietary software, I wouldn't commit it in a GPLed project. Unless you people at Muse come with something completely different from the terms of the proposed agreement, I'll kindly ask you to retreat my contributions because I won't agree with this draconian license. First the telemetry, now this. I can't help but think that IT'S TIME TO FORK AUDACITY and let Muse do whatever they want to the code they can prove is theirs. Cleber PT_br translator
