      Why the hell do you think this? Or push it?

      you seem to know nothing about what you’re talking about

      Have you even committed code to an open source project? Maintainers do not automatically get a say, I can’t submit a PR and block this, and code has Owners as well, who can override the maintainers at any time

      Corporations count on as much when they get the owner to sell out, and force the maintainers to setup a fork and lose a fuckton of momentum

        @RandoCalrandian l@Spellbind0127 because thats the law you can’t just change the license of code that other have contributed to just because you own the repository doesn’t make it so you own the legal rights to all the code. (Your an idiot if you say otherwise. )

          lol, you clearly don’t know law

          They can release the next version under whatever license they want, because they own the code

          Happens all the time
