LICENSE.md: EVProfile's upstream licence is settled
EVHardware's notes call the licence of EVProfile's upstream unresolved. Checked: malys/EVProfile is MIT, forked from SliDeeN/MG4Control and last merged from it on 2026-08-02. MG4Control is MIT up to 2.6.5 (2026-08-05) and GPL v3 from 2.6.6 (2026-09-02), with the earlier versions staying MIT, so the code EVProfile took is from the MIT period. Recorded with links; not an audit of every EVHardware line. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01QLJfZQZeAKAwSqViTmLzki

The car app links EVHardware into its APK, so the **built app** may only be used and passed on
|
||||
non-commercially, whatever the MIT parts would allow on their own. The server, the Kubernetes
|
||||
manifests and the docs do not contain EVHardware and are plain MIT. EVHardware's own notes say
|
||||
that parts of it come from EVProfile, whose upstream licence situation it calls unresolved;
|
||||
that caveat is EVHardware's and stays with it.

EVHardware's own notes say parts of it come from EVProfile, "itself a fork whose upstream
|
||||
licence situation is unresolved". Checked on 2026-10-18, that is settled for the code in
|
||||
question:
|
||||
|
||||
- [malys/EVProfile](https://github.com/malys/EVProfile) is MIT. It is a fork of
|
||||
[SliDeeN/MG4Control](https://github.com/SliDeeN/MG4Control), and its last merge from
|
||||
MG4Control is a commit of 2026-08-02.
|
||||
- MG4Control is MIT up to and including 2.6.5 (released 2026-08-05; its licence file dates
|
||||
from 2026-06-24) and GPL v3 or later from 2.6.6 (2026-09-02). Its `LICENCE.md` states that
|
||||
the earlier versions stay MIT for good.
|
||||
|
||||
So what EVProfile took from MG4Control dates from MG4Control's MIT period. This covers the
|
||||
lineage EVHardware names; it is not an audit of every line in EVHardware.
