Comment on Ask HN: Software licensing excluding military use?parent

Comments

are they going to sue?

No, but projects insisting on OS won't use it, and every online discussion about it will derail into a discussion about calling things "Open Source" that don't fit the OSI criteria and the pro and cons of creating your own licenses ;)

Since OP explicitly mentioned "open sourcing" it I think it's a fair concern to point out.

True, but that only matters to the degree you care about that vs Military use.
