#62Earlier quoted context omitted.
You do realize that any client-side code – especially with the universal right to decompile and adapt code in the EU – is essentially open source anyway?
I can't comment on EU law but the ability to redistribute the (modified) code is also a defining characteristic of open source http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source
Yes, but reverse engineered code is NOT subject to copyright of the original author by law (there is an EuGH decision about this). IANAL.
Therefore it is, essentially, open source.

#63I would love for such and SDK for Google Maps. It's ubiquitous and I'm always trying to catch up with API breakage. Is there something like that?
