Hey folks, this is very important for free software projects to be able to use this software. Are you able to please clarify the license?

When I founded this project it was always meant to be a fully open source, no restrictions project that the community could maintain. In that regard, it has also not been maintained or updated and they (videostream/groupnotes) has no interest in maintaining this project. We had opted for a native application approach and had no reason to maintain a cordova branch.

My suggestion is to fork it, add your own CC 4.0 license, and maintain your own branch as this one is effectively dead.

For clarity, you are free to use the code for whatever you like.

@acidhax Thank you for the clarification! In our case, we'd be forking it into a GPLv2 project, as long as that is OK by you as the copyright holder we will do so and consider it relicensed accordingly!
