Lots of personal feelings about this area, so please:
Be kind -not everyone agrees with everything.
Opinions are fine, but even better if backed by fact. Share screenshots, log output, etc. -And ensure that you have a backup before doing anything experimental!
I was poking around a harmless thread about software congratulation,and stumbled on the news that the award-winning WSJT-X may be at or near it's current end:
The issue appears to be that WSJT-X https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/wsjtx.html is currently made available under the GPL. Good? Yes, but the GPL does permit forked development. One such fork has permitted unattended operation, against the wishes of J Taylor himself. The proposed remedy appears to make future WSJT-X proprietary closed source.
Well? While WSJT-X is very much J Taylor's "baby", the effects of removing future development from the public domain may not all be positive?
JTDX https://sourceforge.net/projects/jtdx-improved/ anyone?
Callsign (or a name) and an email (for lost password, etc.) -that's all!
