But open source developers are human, the developers were just having a bad day maybe. Not great to close a known issue, instead of keeping it on the backlog. The frustration of a company using your work to make money, while you dont get any is going to eat at anyone… Especially if they are reporting (valid) issues… it would feel like unpaid labor (which it is).
So I get it. LGPL copyleft is designed just for this… at least the people making the money can’t keep it closed.
Agreed. Its a good bug report.
