Terms of use of the generated components 20 Apr 2012 14:25 #2083

Hi,

Just need a clarification regarding the following:

1. When I generate a component using Cook, am I licensed to distribute that component as a commercial component (for a fee)?
2. Do I retain the full ownership of the component?
3. Are there any restrictions about changing the contents of the generated files, including removing the headers / signatures.

Thanks and regards

Kaushal

You are licensed to change the final license under only one term :
- Keep the signatures in the headers of generated files.

Thanks.
Would you please answer the parts 1 and 2 of the question as well? About the ownership of the component and the commercial use?

You can distribute and resell your application

You retain the full ownership of the component, but you must leave the signature in the headers of the files next to yours.

That's it.

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
