The implementation details I guessed or received help from externally. As I mentioned, I used the public API documentation to implement this, which does not involve downloading the software (and thus invoking the EULA). bbepis wrote: Ignoring the fact that the EULA is not enforceable, I cannot accept a EULA for something I didn't even download. (3) modify, merge, recreate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to derive the source code for the Software.You also aren't allowed to reverse engineer or recreate the work. That's taken directly from the end user agreement of UMF, which states that you can't adapt the work. (1) adapt, alter, translate, embed into any other product or otherwise create derivative works of, or otherwise modify the Software. Without limiting the foregoing, You are neither allowed to I can't have stolen any code if one of the projects gave me explicit permission to do so, and the other didn't have any code to steal in the first place. This is kind of frustrating being the target of a raid like this by some discord moderator who has never written a single line of code and doesn't understand these concepts. Linux uses this kind of development to support Unix and POSIX APIs. Oracle that set a legal precedent that this kind of analysis and reimplementation falls under fair use. The only thing you could argue with it is that I should not have copied the public API directly, but there was a multi-billion dollar lawsuit that happened earlier this year with Google vs. It had to be created from scratch using the public API documentation. Let alone that, it physically cannot be stolen work because there is no available code for it. If you asked the guy who created the GPL license if you needed permission to fork, he would call you crazy.Īs for the uMod component, implemented by, it contains ZERO code from uModFramework. If veesus did not want his work being used in such a way, he should have not given explicit permission to do so by using this license with his source code. The component is open-source and is under the same license. For the uninitiated, a license is a legally binding contract that specifies what you can and can't do with the source code, and under what conditions you must adhere to.Ī TLDR of the GPL v3.0 license is "You can take this code and modify it, bu you must make your derivative work opensource and under the same GPL v3.0 license", which I have done. The original SRML project is released under the GPL v3.0 license. The SRML component of this loader is implemented by. bbepis wrote: Can you explain what part is stolen? From what I've heard, this mod is being report-bombed because of the SRML and uMod components within it. GhastlyGamer13 wrote: You can't just steal people's work without permission.
