Thoughts on awesomium #61

Closed paultech closed 8 years ago

paultech commented 8 years ago

Hello,

Been doing some research on the requirements to replace chromium with awesomium that has its goals setup more in line with our usage pattern. This would also remove the heavy requirement of two separate projects (Blui and BluBrowser) as awesomium already implements IPC and isolation processes in a suitable manner.

My only concern is the licensing for awesomium is not permissive (Free for <100K revenue, non-commercial and education).

Any thoughts on this? Looking at the existing code this would be a heavy overhaul but the benefits are pretty vast.

Thanks

Discard. Not a usable product due to close source nature.
