Aber auch open Source unterliegt einem Copyright
Und wenn ich daran erinnern darf, was da ganz oben im Code des MP steht ...

Und die Verschlüsselung ist nicht von ungefähr gekommen, sondern um weiteren Codeklau zu verhindern. Diese Selbstbedienungsmentalität ist für mich eigentlich nicht mehr hinnehmbar. Plugins kommen, Plugins gehen. Und ob das 6.4 jetzt EOL ist, ist doch nebensächlich für das Mediaportal, weil das dort halt auch noch läuft mit den Sachen, die gefixt werden. Und klar, das was halt nicht mehr zu fixen geht, dafür gibt es schon Einzelplugins. Aber wer will immer zwischen Plugins hin und her wechseln.
Und es gibt bestimmt einen triftigen Grund, warum da immer wieder Webseiten, oder GITs verschwinden.
