Licenses

Post by linobi »

Hello there!

I designed a circuit board that is heavily based on the Waveshield. Actually, I just remplaced the double opamp with a LM386 and made all components SMD. It's no longer an Arduino shield, but now it carries all the microcontroller system in a single little board. Of course, it uses the WaveHC library too.

I want to sell it. Now my question is, am I actually allowed to do so? You know, to make profit. Or what do I have to do in order to do so? I think the only requeriment it's to be straight honest when anyone I sell the board, give proper and full credit to people behind me and of course, free the designs and code according to the GPL, am I allright?

Thanks,
& Regards.
Lino R.

hiya,

it's really simple.

1) you need to credit us (attribution) "based on the waveshield by ladyada"
2) you need to release your files the same way we do (share-alike) so others can build on your work as you've built on ours

we're out for the next week but feel free to email us after 1/3 regarding this [email protected]

thanks,
adafruit
