I looked at the website, but did not see the license.
Could you please provide the link? Also I have a question concerning this quote from their website: Since Chameleon relies heavily on Core Animation, a proprietary technology owned by Apple, it can not be used on other platforms such as Android or Windows. It only allows iOS apps to be ported to the Mac. 1) Were you aware of this? 2) Is GNUstep in any way currently unable to work on Windows or Android for a similar reason? 3) Would limiting GNUstep to the Mac be a good thing?

It might be a good idea for CoreGraphics / CoreAnimation work to have 'running Chameleon' as an explicit goal: having demos of some open source UIKit apps modified to use it would be a great way of encouraging people to contribute to UIKit support. > > David > > -- > This email complies with ISO 3103 > > > _______________________________________________ > Discuss-gnustep mailing list > Discuss-gnustep@gnu.org > https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep |
