I just noticed that GhostScript seems to have somehow changed its license from GPL to commercial, which I never imagined possible with GPL. (I’m partial to MIT/BSD-style licenses for FOSS.) And I could swear it’s not the first I’ve spotted recently. What other free software software is suddenly being fed after midnight?

@johnbutler@typo.social From what I can see, they are still dual-licensed with GPL and commercial license. 20+ years ago it already was a commercial company which made its buck from licensing PS renderer to laser printer manufacturers.
