@npub18yv…xxyn So you are saying, I can take any project under BSD and change license and claim it is my project?

@npub18yv…xxyn this is what I said.
but it is still BSD and no license changed.
distributing without source --> OK
Changing License of anything you are not the only copyright holder --> NOK

We need to distinguish between "changing the license" and "not releasing the source code along with the product".
The latter would be perfectly fine with the BSDL, but a license change can only be made by the copyright holder.
So basically you are not changing the license for existing code, but any new code is subject to the new license.
However, changing (bug fixing) existing code to put it under a new license still needs to be proven to be legal and I doubt.

It is remarkable how little big tech companies know about open source licensing.
One can not change the license of code from others contributed to your project, except you let them sign a CLA.
And as it seems, #redis didn't. So they might face a lawsuit against #redhat, #AlibabaCloud and 700+ contributors.
