TobiBS Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 Hi Pete, I started to develop an OpenSource application and wanted to share the source now on SourceForge. I am programming in C++ and therefore using the Header and Lib file which comes with the SDK. In there I found no license or anything else which states rights for the distribution of these files. Therefore my question: Is it allowed to distribute the FSUIPC_User.h and FSUIPC_User.lib together with the rest of my source and a note that it does not belong to the GPL licensed source, but is included for reference and the actual version is available from your page? Thanks for clarification on that subject. Best regards, Tobias

Really? don't I say somewhere that they are completely free and you can do what you like? Sorry, I should have! Therefore my question: Is it allowed to distribute the FSUIPC_User.h and FSUIPC_User.lib together with the rest of my source and a note that it does not belong to the GPL licensed source, but is included for reference and the actual version is available from your page? Yes, of course. Go ahead (though it isn't really "my page" but Enrico Schiratti's). Regards Pete
