Um, it is not the product of evolution, but of intelligent design. But the designer obviously changed his mind about this being free software and now only sells the updated versions as a commercial product (CAN-version actually-
http://www.obduino.ca ).
I can see a legal problem with that, since this is not the sole work of "Magister", portions of the code are written by "dcb" and others for example. And their contributions are licensed under GPL, so Magister can't just take their code and sell it as part of a closed source product. But then again he is mentioned as the main coder and he can choose any license he wants to. It is just too sad, this is the only open source embedded obd2 project i know of, someon should take it up and finish it.
It really is weird. If Magister (Frédéric) did reimplement their contributions, then why are not the others making any more commits to the trunk ?
Anyone care to comment? dcb?
