Fix Likely GPL Violations #8

Open r6e opened 2 months ago

r6e commented 2 months ago

There are several instances in this repository where the GPL v3 has likely been violated. These violations are mostly failure to credit the original authors and/or removal of the original copyright information. Here are a few examples:

Also, any changes to included projects (especially Klipper, KlipperScreen, and Moonraker) likely violate the GPL, since the changes have not been specified.

I greatly appreciate all the effort Sovol has made to open-source everything in this repository, and only want to suggest that the original authors' efforts (and licenses) are respected as well :)

I fully agree with this, the GPL is not just a recommendation.

It would probably be the easiest way to switch to simple mainline Klipper without code modifications - then you wouldn't have to deal with these issues.
