Summary 0003537: Unbake IpToCountry.dat from executable (resources.qrc), make it optional
Revision 2018-10-06 11:45 by WubTheCaptain
Description With IpToCountry.dat being CC BY-SA 4.0 licensed (MaxMind GeoLite2), this has only one-way compatibility of binary distribution under terms of GPLv3-only. Apparently this is undesirable for Zalewa and/or Blzut3 (the maintainers), but seemingly not a blocking issue.

Additionally, an older CC BY-SA 3.0 IP2C dataset in the binary would create a license violation due to having no compatibility at all with LGPLv2.1+/GPLv2+.

Some ideas were proposed in ticket 0003512 of making this (IP2C) optional, so that binaries could be possibly distributed under LGPLv2.1+.
