Confused about license #354

Closed dave-kennedy closed 1 year ago

I'm no expert, but I believe in order for the following statement (copied from the website) to be true, the source code for both the community and supporter editions should be freely available:

Under which license is bibisco released?

bibisco is licensed under the terms of GNU GPL License. But... can you sell free software? Read here.

If the source code is only available for the community edition, then that should maybe read "bibisco community edition is licensed under the GNU GPL."

Or does this repository contain the source code for the supporters edition? In that case, can I use the supporters edition if I'm able to build it myself?

Sort of related to #303.

Has indicated in this repository description: bibisco has 2 versions: Community Edition and Supporters Edition; this is the repository of bibisco Community Edition.

@andreafeccomandi maybe you just glanced at the title. I can understand if you get this question a lot. But mine was a little more specific and you didn't exactly answer it. Please take another look.
