If GTA:SA goes open source, I'll open source samp. Until that time I don't think samp is a very good open source project because it's a mod written for a proprietary game. Put simply, how could I assign a code license for code which isn't my own?
What exactly is the benefit for me to open source? Wouldn't I be better off keeping the code for some future project? It looks like the sa-mp code is going die with this project. Open source licenses are rarely respected in the modern world. I open sourced vc-mp but people who obtained the code didn't respect the license and now it's dead. Someone highly motivated to work on a project like this doesn't need source. They can code it themselves. I started with nothing remember. |
But why don't you give it to some Beta Tester? Or even a former developer (who's a BT now) like Y_Less?
He's shown that he'd be willing to take it on and he'd probably want to take over and do something with it. It would be better for the community, and probably better for you. You won't have to murder yourself looking at 20 messages asking the same question "update when pls ? "
However, unlike everyone else in this thread, I think open sourcing SA-MP would be a huge mistake.
