    Open-sourcing of WinAmp goes badly for its owners, anyway

    [10:10] schestowitz[TR2]

    The source code release prior to the deletion yesterday has been a somewhat bumpy ride. The initial release had a custom license, the Winamp Collaborative License (WCL) Version 1.0, containing the clause:

    "No Forking: You may not create, maintain, or distribute a forked version of the software."
