[Linuxmce-project] Pluto Licensing Issues

[Ben F. <li...@hi...>]

Hi All,

Two people in the space of one day mentioned Linux MCE to me so I 
thought I'd better take a look.

I don't yet know much about it except that it's a fork of Pluto Home 
ported to run on an Ubuntu base. As an Ubuntu user interested in Home 
Automation I'm very interested in this project.

I want to ask about licensing because something that put me off Pluto 
Home as a developer was that certain key components of the project were 
licensed under Pluto's own license which had certain "non-commercial" 
clauses which made it non-free software (no freedom for commercial use).

Have these licensing issues been resolved or even noticed and are they a 
  problem any more?

I'm very interested in playing with Linux MCE and perhaps hacking on the 
web interface.

Keep up the good work!

Ben
