https://github.com/iu8lmc/decodium3-build/releases/tag/v3.0.0-linux #sourcecode for #ft2
I haven't tried compiling it yet -
#FT2 , #vibecoded by Claude AI, yeah great... "it's my code, I don't accept the GPL!!!" or whatever, ignoring the GPL license of #wsjtx
Edit: he published the source code at https://github.com/iu8lmc/decodium3-build/releases/tag/v3.0.0-linux (I haven't tried compiling it myself yet)

@vk6flab #FT2
Epilogue: even if everything were legal, the code for the modified WSJT-X host were published, and the communication between host and client is clearly documented, I would still oppose this way of doing digital: there would be another proprietary mode out there that is not fully documented and that would require the use of closed-source software to use. Not the ham spirit of sharing and experimenting. -
It remains to be seen in which case we are. That would not be possible until the developers publish the sources for the modified WSJT-X host under the GPL v.3 licence. Then we could analyse what's going on.
(5/5)
-
* If the modified WSJT-X software communicates with the proprietary FT2 encoder/decoder via a formal, documented interface (like a pipe, a socket, or a command-line argument), they are often considered separate programs.
* If Martino and colleagues added a generic plugin architecture to WSJT-X that could be used by anyone writing "plugins" similar to the one they wrote FT2, and then happens to use it for their proprietary tool, it would be harder to prove a breach.
(4/5)

However, one could contend that, if the modified WSJT-X shares complex data structures or intimate memory spaces with the FT2 encoder-decoder, it is a derivative work. In this case, the proprietary #FT2 "plugin" must be open-sourced, or the developer is in breach.
What would be "acceptable"?
(3/5) -
@vk6flab So here's the deal:
#FT2 leverages WSJT-X as a platform by modifying it so that it works with their proprietary encoder-decoder.
When #FT2 publishes the modified WSJT-X "host" and the proprietary FT2 encoder/decoder "client" separately, have they solved the copyright breach?
Apparently, perhaps, yes. (2/5)
-
@vk6flab #FT2 OK, Martino IU8LMC came back to me. He basically says:
1. The FT2 encoder-decoder is his own work, and he reserves the right to publish the sources.
2. He's aware of the copyright breach will *soon* distribute the sources of the modified version of WSJT that accommodates the encoder-decoder.(1/5)

#FT2, "the fastest mode" is currently only available on Windows and there is no source code. It should not be in our bands like that.

Diese Woche habe ich mir die analoge Kamera Nikkormat FT2 gekauft. Optisch ist die Kamera top. Es gibt nur ein Problem, der Ring zum Einstellen der ASA Werte ist fest. Man kann ihn nicht mehr drehen. Der Ring steht sehr fest. Weiß jemand wie man dieses Problem lösen kann?

Hieno katsaus tracker-musiikin alkuaikoihin. Amigalla en ehtinyt tehdä mitään, mutta Fast Tracker II oli kovalla käytöllä jo 90-luvun puolella.

Muokkaan uutta versiota vuonna 2000 tehdystä kappaleesta työkalulla vuodelta 1996.. Oldskool-taso on maksimoitu.
