I do not think so. If you look at the copyright holders, I think it will be difficult to convince all of them to change to BSD license from the current LGPL 2.1 license. https://github.com/libusbx/libusbx/blob/master/AUTHORS If you use FreeBSD, it has libusb-1.0 implementation which is compatible with libusb-1.0 API and it is under BSD license. There is also a new libusby project which tries to implement libusb-1.0 API (slightly modified) with a more liberal license (Boost Software License, which is similar to BSD license). https://github.com/avakar/libusby http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_Software_License So you may want to take a look at libusby if you want. I have not tried it myself and I doubt it will gain much popularity as libusb-1.0/libusbx. -- Xiaofan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master SQL Server Development, Administration, T-SQL, SSAS, SSIS, SSRS and more.
