Open Source

- To get started, see the summary page and have a look through Navgauge Issue #4 to get a feel for where we started. Then - join the mailinglist by sending an email to signalk+subscribe@googlegroups.com or follow the discussion via - the Signal K Google Groups forum. + Yup. We intend to publish all source code under an Apache 2.0 license and everything else, like protocols and interface + descriptions, under a CC-BY-SA license. +

+

+ That means that it is open source, but friendly to companies that want to use it in closed source applications or hardware. + As long as you contribute back we're happy. +
