> I don't think it's right to recommend that new users move away from the package because of licensing issues

I was going to chime in to agree but then I saw how this was done - a completely innocuous looking commit:

https://github.com/haifengl/smile/commit/6f22097b233a3436519...

And literally no mention in the release notes:

https://github.com/haifengl/smile/releases/tag/v3.0.0

I think if you are going to change license especially in a way that makes it less permissive you need to be super open and clear about both the fact you are doing it and your reasons for that. This is done so silently as to look like it is intentionally trying to mislead and trick people.

So maybe I wouldn't say to move away because of the specific license, but it's legitimate to avoid something when it's so clearly driven by a single entity and that entity acts in a way that isn't trustworthy.

Project mention: WLJS Notebook – Open-source web-based notebook interface for Wolfram Language | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-14

WHAT A LEGEND. This solves most of the problems I have with Wolfram Cloud.

Now we just need a FOSS reimplementation of wolframscript that can also run in the browser. Unfortunately, Mathics' one[1] is written in Python.

• fricas

  8 286 9.3 Clojure

  Official repository of the FriCAS computer algebra system

  

Project mention: Integral Calculator | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-15

But it's integration functionalities are less advanced and comprehensive than those of Fricas. Interestingly, the latter is, like Maxima, implemented using Lisp and stems from a ancient software lineage. Both systems are free and open-source.
