Hello dears!

What is https://github.com/joschi70/AndroidPirateBox/blob/master/libs/paw-server.jar? Where does it come from? What does it do?

I'm very sad because a lot of people don't use and don't want to improve this app because this non-free library, that makes AndroidPirateBox "non-free"... Conversely the other your libraries and all the rest of your source code is free...

I think that a lot of people thinks that it's dangerous to grant root permissions to an application that does not allow to see what it does with its permissions...

PAW is my own integrated web server which is currently not free software. Nevertheless you can remove the JAR and it's references from the sources if you don't trust it. Use the external server settings to use the web server you like. You will lose some things (integrated start page, I18N etc.), otherwise it should work.
