Switching to the GPL

Posted by xeiavica - October 3rd, 2024


My Tahoma2D project that's a powerhouse bundling of stuff to make Tahoma2D as awesome as it can be is under the GPLv3 now. Just my stuff, the original sources are untouched. Reason being is that in the scenario I static link against ffmpeg and/or enable the gpl stuff in ffmpeg, I have to make it GPL. And I'm just preparing in the scenario it gets bigger as it goes along, so I decided to GPL it.


If you don't like the GPL, the only thing that might catch you is the header file wrapper (The wolf and dwango plugins use a wrapper also) that if you pull it in, you have to GPL your plugins that links against OpenCV. I suggest making your own wrapper if you don't want that.


I mentioned last news update I might do a custom build of Tahoma2D, that's only if I decide on linking against ffmpeg that requires GPL licensing or some other reason. I'll cross that bridge when I have to cross it.
