I don't really follow "not a new playstore or applestore". The problem with those places is that they are often the sole means, and enforce a commission. What we're talking about is totally different, following f-droid's lead, which is just formalizing longstanding norms that Free Software is expected to act in the user's interest, not the interest of the people that distribute it. The real issue here is that people are at least being seen as maybe getting close to the line. I'm suggesting being explicit to stay ahead of that. _______________________________________________ QGIS-Developer mailing list QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
