@n00dles101 I don't know why you're comparing to such drastically different products. GetSimple is not exactly like Joomla, Wordpress , Drupal. The only substantial similarity that I see is just in the term content management system. The reason I even looked at GetSimple in the first place was searching for MICRO CMS on open source license for simple and small whole package deployments for clients. From my understanding of this new-ish term... GetSimple qualifies as a MCMS. And I estimate current usage of GetSimple is also no where near that of any leading CMS. Not that won't change over time... BUT... the underlying issue to my question has not been directly addressed.
which is... DO developers have permission to sell complete packages* of GetSimple for single deployment which include any combination of custom themes,plugins, and/or modified core code in that package?
*Only if a disclaimer which states that GetSimple is GPLv3 with a link to download the source of the core files (and any core modifications) and if a GPLv3 license document is included in the package.
Second issue (which was more or less addressed already):
Can themes for get simple be sold under a entirely different license?
These are the bottom line issues for which reason I opened this thread in the first place. The primary issue has not been directly addressed. And not addressing genuine valid concerns will push developers (like me) away. It's not like I'm asking for any coding work to be done or any burden-ly grievous actions.... I'm just asking for direct answers.
This is a serious concern of mine (and it seems to be a similar concern of others) and I am not goofing around or pulling anyone's leg. I am legitimately concerned and want to make sure I'm not stepping on anyone's toes.
so please provide a direct answer so I can confidently make the right decision on what I will do with my time concerning future theme development for this product.
