PFS3 is soon to become free and opensource

[warpdesign]

Good news!

It's great to see some open-mind... What would happen if every developer was that opened... hmmm..

@Gulliver: what about building a list of software that has been released as free and/or open source ? Could be useful. You could also use that to convince more people to release their software...

[warpdesign]

Yes it is. For me the biggest drawback is there is no DiskSalv available for it, which would have been handy a couple of times. Maybe now someone could develop one.

Well... maybe it could be done if Dave released the sources of DiskSalv... Gulliver: ever thought about contacting Dave Haynie ?

I fail to see the problem. If PFS3 gets *open-sourced*, then it wouldn't be a problem to take the sources from AF CD and release it to Aminet, or anywhere else, right ?

Unless some weird licence is added while going through the AF CD that prevents that. But PFS3's author can't get fooled this way, right ?

I'm always amazed at how people talk about money, profit,... in such a tiny community where there shouldn't be *any* money involved at all.
