[mosh-devel] GPL license and iOS

[James Osborne]

Hi Alex,

That's true, but it still requires the iOS developer supply source code for their entire App. I can't see many being willing to undertake that - especially not if they have a paid app. There must surely be a way around this impasse? (Other than the developer re-implementing the protocol for themselves?)

Regards,

James
