Create a config setting about whether the plugin is in open source or commercial "mode" (see email from Greg to Jeff on 4/22/16).

WPScan Team,

GovReady is currently developing a cybersecurity and compliance dashboard for WordPress. The idea is to summarize and present various O&M and compliance information in an easy to understand format for WordPress users.

We are developing the plugin open source ( https://github.com/GovReady/GovReady-WordPress-Agent ) and are considering data from WPScan.

We see scenarios where end-users are using our plugin under its open source license. But we also see scenarios where the plugin will be part of a hosted subscription service.

So we wanted to figure out the best way to coordinate this with you.

Thanks!

Hi Greg,

Thank you for contacting us regarding a commercial license.

  1. "We see scenarios where end-users are using our plugin under its open source license."

As long as this plugin is free to use and does not promote any other paid services you can use the API free of charge as long as we are credited accordingly.

  1. "But we also see scenarios where the plugin will be part of a hosted subscription service."

If your users have to pay to use this service, or if the service generates income some other way and WPScan data adds value to that service then you would need to purchase a commercial license.

Our data licenses are non-exclusive and sold AS-IS. The price includes all updates within the license period. We can also provide full JSON data dumps for you to download and host on your own servers for commercial users.

A database license costs 300 Euros per year.

Let me know if you have any further questions or would like to go ahead with a commercial license.

Thanks, Ryan
