Hello I am assuming you dont mind the project being open source, as such for others to use it legally there needs to be a license. Please read this GitHub article to better understand what I am asking, I have quoted it below.

"You're under no obligation to choose a license. However, without a license, the default copyright laws apply, meaning that you retain all rights to your source code and no one may reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from your work. If you're creating an open source project, we strongly encourage you to include an open source license. The Open Source Guide provides additional guidance on choosing the correct license for your project."

Can you please add a license to the project, I generally use GPLV2 but whichever is in alignment with your views is fine.

Thank you - MrWicked

Ill have to get agreement from other contributors before adding license to the project as they made changes to the original source too, will try to get in touch with them and license it likely under gpl v2

I'm pretty sure this or any other open source project isn't, they just share similar names.

its not affiliated with it in any shape of form, a lot of websites tend to name themselves after open source or popular tools to gain users
