It&#x27;s kind of funny how people want guarantees about the licenses of future releases that don&#x27;t actually exist.<p>There&#x27;s no guarantee that a random open source project will have any new releases at all. In that case, what good is a promise about its license?<p>Or if they do happen, the code might change in a way that&#x27;s backward-incompatible so you can no longer use it.<p>The only guarantee you can count on is that if the code you actually have doesn&#x27;t suit your needs, you can change it yourself.
