Your opinion on giving out source code?

[AhellHound]

Hello, I was wondering what your opinion is on giving out source code? Someone PM'd me on bukkit.org about a multiplayer plugin, and wanting the source code for it. Now, they could easily decompile it with a decompiler, so what would you do if you were in my situation?

 

Thanks for reading,

Is it your code? If not then no. If someone wants to decompile something themselves and look at it thats fine, but if they cant do that they probably wont understand what they are looking at anyways, so no.

Ya it's my code. They want to change the plugin to fit the specific needs of their server.

Then thats up to you, its your code you can give it to whomever you wish, or keep it for yourself, you can do whatever you want.

But I do find it funny that you asked this question.. on a open source forum.. for an open source project.... with a ton of open source mods attached to it...

I'm not against it or anything, I was just curious on other's opinions. But that is pretty funny .
