There is no source for this project. I would very much like to see the JLink script that is being generated so I can learn from it. I would love to be able to fix the bug that prevents the command line tool from working with SoftDevice 7.x.

And then of course there is the little issue that Sourceforge is supposed to be a place for FLOSS projects, so there should be be source and a license.

    This project is a binary-only release as it contains code which I'm unable to share. I think it's better to at least make the project available without source than not make it available at all.

    Then you are violating the terms of service of SourceForge (see 7. "SourceForge.net Submissions/Content.") I don't have a problem with you posting binary only apps, but don't use a Open/Free/etc Source hosting service to do it.

    There are plenty of options for distributing binary files. Google Drive, Dropbox, etc etc

    But it should be also pointed out that you can split out the code that can't be shared to a binary and still share the rest. At least then you could be somewhat true to the requirements of this site.
