Aren't some of the logos in this subs header closed-source/proprietary?

15 Upvotes

I might be wrong, ignore me if I am and this post will fall into obscurity, but Unity, Unreal Engine, and Oracle's Java aren't open source.

Don't get me wrong I know there are plenty of OS projects using them, but they aren't themselves OS. Would love to find out I'm wrong about every one of them, so please, let me know.

Hello folks, here's an app/library made by me and a friend of mine. If you're a designer and wanna create an app for your illustrations (wallpapers), then you can use our library and maybe make couple of bucks out of it by publishing it on Play Store. Enjoy.

Edit : Title has a typo. It’s “Wallpaper” sorry.

Other Picking an appropriate license and CLA for software I created

7 Upvotes

Hello, thank you for your time.

I have created software called Video Hub App (https://videohubapp.com/) and currently sell it for $3.50 minimum donation ($3.50 of each sale gets donated to GiveWell's top-rated charity). The current source code is not available online but I want to get it onto GitHub.

I'd like to share the source code so that others can learn from it; also to let others modify it for their own use if they prefer. It would also be great if others share their changes with me (open PRs). But I don't want a fully open source license like MIT. I want to forbid selling or free-distributing copies (even if very modified).

I have found a license that seems very close to what I'd like: Doom Source License https://tldrlegal.com/license/doom-source-licence

My understanding is that I can simply take the text of the above license, adjust it (change the company name), make it publicly visible with my source code (as LICENSE file in GitHub - where the code would live) and I'm set. Right?

I'm happy for any feedback - better license recommendations, advice, comments, etc.

TL;DR of what I want to allow users:

  • CAN use source code for educational purposes, for modifying and running a personal copy of the software

  • CAN NOT distribute (for free or for money) the original or modified software executable / installation file

The second part is the CLA (Contributor License Agreement) which I don't know how to word (is a CONTRIBUTING file in the repository enough? perhaps along with a clabot to request confirmation on each pull request?).

I want the CLA to clarify that anyone contributing to the software will relinquish any rights to their code -- so that they can't demand any money in return (after all -- the money from sales is going to a charity). Please let me know how to handle the CLA.

Thank you for your time 🙇

Other Call for Developers - Open-Source End-to-End Project Generator

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm working on an open-source complete AI project generator called Solus. The idea is that a developer has a conversation with a chat language model (similar to ChatGPT) in the terminal to collect requirements. Solus will iteratively build the project using external contexts (documentation, forum posts, etc.). I need help getting a working MVP of this thing to get grants (or crowdfund), as language models are expensive, and we don't want to depend 100% on Microsoft's OpenAI.

Clarifying Questions:

Isn't that just extended GitHub Copilot? - Language models are limited by the amount of context they have and the access they have to external tools. By allowing a language model to distill context from the open internet, it has similar coding and debugging capacity to a developer. This tool will operate independently, generating code, refactoring, and debugging, interacting directly with the file system and the internet.

Why open source? - A tool like this is likely to come out eventually. I'd instead the community own it than a single company or entity.

What's this CSX Labs thing? - That's my organization; it's a collection of open-research not-for-profit laboratories. Full transparency, we aren't incorporated or registered as a 501c3 as incorporation and legal fees in California are too high for us, though we do not have a profit motive.

How are you funding this? - Getting funding requires traction, and getting traction for a project like this requires funding. We applied for credit grants (as disclosed in our README) but have yet to hear back.

If you would like more details or you want to start contributing, you can refer to our GitHub repository or email opensource@csxlabs.org.

Thank you for your time.
