However, the EULA also covers areas that are in conflict with the permissive MIT license in this repository (e.g. restricting the use to be non-commercial). Personally, I would find it unfortunate if Drishti would move from being free (as in freedom to share and modify) and open source to only being free of charge and open source. Limiting the use of Drishti to be personal and non-commercial will result in difficult-to-answer legal questions, especially for academic users, which, I assume make up the largest user share. One example: Someone hosts a workshop 3D reconstruction techniques for which the participants or the university have to pay. Is this already a commercial use? Maybe, a less permissive open source license would be more suitable for Drishti, if you want to prevent others from lawfully making profit of off your software.
