     @eris @rozenglass @Spooke That is proprietary software, therefore it cannot possibly be.

     @Spooke @rozenglass @eris Some of the files are licensed under the GPLv2-ambigious or another free license, but many of the files are under no license as there is no statement in the readme unambiguously stating that unmarked files are under x license; https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#NoLicense
     
     There are also some unexplained "source" files like; src/t_facon.c src/t_fsin.c, src/t_ftan.c, src/t_tan2a.c (it could be just lookup tables, but there is no explanation).
     
     It also depends on at least one proprietary library like fmod as detailed in; assets/LICENSE-3RD-PARTY.txt
     
     There is some very slopping licensing under src/hardware for example too.
     
     
     The project is quite a mess and until the point that the proprietary software is removed and the licensing situation is cleaned up, it is proprietary software.

     @Suiseiseki @rozenglass @eris isn't SRB2K open source?
     
     https://git.do.srb2.org/KartKrew/Kart-Public or am I looking at gpl2 wrong.
