Anyone here with some insight into the #blender open source addon community? I found several plugins marked as "Open Source", for example: https://github.com/GitMay3D/OpenScatter

Just that they do not seem to be Open Source at all. The repo is empty, the maintainer seems to upload the sources, make a release, then delete them in another commit. Now even looking at the sources in the commits that have them, they seem to be heavily obfuscated.

It seems to be an exercise in dancing around the GPL.
