GT+ is going open source
Direct from the GT+ forums. I think this is great personally. Not because I refuse to pay $50 for PV, but because it most likely involve both products getting better faster. With all the new poker sites going up now I think open source might be the best route.

Re: GT+ is going open source
This is excellent news...I was actually thinking that having an open source tracker would be best (no one is scared of ppl stealing info...all the code is out in the open) and 10 people can add sites 10x as fast as 1 person (since it can be done in parallel).
Excellent news, you can count on me making a contribution to this [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

what does open source mean? [/ QUOTE ] Basically the source code (the computer code that runs the program) is going to be freely available for anyone to change/manipulate/download/compile and depending upon the release conditions they cannot sell it for a profit. An example would be Linux, an open source operating system, where groups of people have spents tons of time working on it and it still remains free and very useful.

Re: GT+ is going open source
I think this is a great idea. Since GT+ is free (as in price anyway)we might as well seek to best optimize it.
It would be great if PT proper would adopt a free software licence like the GPL, although I understand why that is unlikely. By the way, most free/opensource licenses at least those used a sourceforge do allow resale of the new binaries.
