Just referenced the VSCodium WAPT package in the README.md

@BazirClem Thanks for the PR, but here are my questions:

Is WAPT open source?
How the WAPT packages are created? Is it open source?
Why the editor is Microsoft?

GitMensch commented 6 months ago

It is proprietary and for administration in bigger networks (as far as I see especially for mixed-OS environments). There was a free "community core" until WAPT 1.8, which is explicit said to be not used because of open CVEs, and the recent ones are completely proprietary.

I vote to not include WAPT in the README as this would mainly serve as "gratis advertising".
