Re: [Openocd-development] License

I'm sure that once a decent replacement is made available, it would be much much easier to have every (C) holder agree on removing FTDI2xx???

Many people already have older "illegal" snapshots, so that's hardly a problem. As OpenOCD gets more mature, people would want to upgrade and stop using the old versions (assuming the replacement is available).

It doesn't...  It's the same issue as any re-licensing.
You can do it given agreement among all copyright holders.

And it won't invalidate older source snapshots,
with the previous license.
