Redistribution of Domoticz ?

Post by vincen »

Hi

Just surprised to discover Domoticz being used as control interface for some high-ends theater seats (commercial product). Isn't it a break of Domoticz licence ?

Thanks, best

This is the license so it seems not against the rules:
https://github.com/domoticz/domoticz/bl ... icense.txt
Domoticz running on Udoo X86 (on Ubuntu)
Devices/plugins: ZigbeeforDomoticz (with Xiaomi, Ikea, Tuya devices), Nefit Easy, Midea Airco, Omnik Solar, Goodwe Solar

To sump-up, if they use the SW without modification (only doing their own configuration for their product) or makes their source code patches available (not even needing to send PRs to the project github, a company owned FTP server open to anyone and printed in product documentation is enough even if not the best way to reward a useful project with contributions & a pain in the long term for such company then having to manage out of tree patches), this is allowed.

That's GPL side, for BSD publishing derived work is not mandatory: You understand why Apple did not built MacOS X on Linux! :evil:
