Just my 2 cents on licensing change or stay or whatever: * I think any license change should remember it's contributers thoughts. One main thing is, that we all contributed here because we think it' a great done job and it helps us in out current job. If we help us with writing tasks and posting it here, we help others. But one thing is no one likes to see his work be used by a third person to earn a lot of money without seeing the project *mentioned*. * On the other a build tool will find it's way to corporate use. We had a discussion earlier. Corporate use brings up long time developed helpers, which won't be under an OS License. Support for NAnt will be probably included, and this would lead to licensing issues (breaking included). Who'll fight in case of licensing issues? One sole developer? The lead developers as representatives? Who pays? In dept, no one. Who wants to have companies having this problems? No one. We're all happy when NAnt can and will be used in a corporate environment. If a license change helps to improve relationship here, I'm strongly pro change. As said. Just my cents.
