I actually thought PS was gonna be better than cmd… turns out consistency is a lot better in cmd… can’t make heads or tails in PS. I still use cmd to invoke stuff in PS, but only if there is no other way.

See how silly this is? Your license means nothing. It’s just wasted screen space. And nobody is pissed. People are just trying to talk sense to you.
Well, it’s under a permissive license, so there is little he can do legally, except maybe sue them for not mentioning the original project, which I’m sure they will add and that will be that eventually.

It’s their choice. I’m sure they also had this in the works as well, but it eventually didn’t work out (why pay another dev when we can have the ones already working for us do this as a side project… they basically just have to clone the repo and change a few things, that’s it).
As I said, he can sue for not mentioning the original project, but not much more… maybe he’ll think a bit more about what license to choose when publishing big projects like this publically.

They copied the open source project AppGet and screwed the developer. It’s an interesting read.
