Fix#1514.
Precisions made to the LICENSE were not legal modifications to the License, just some moral precisions since things don't seemed clear for everyone.
(Won't elaborate on this, but were some reasons add these precisions).
These precisions are just willing to protect the work of the community/developers and allow the project to continue being developed with a
BSD 2-Clause License: ie share almost everything that is developed, without even thinking about potential business opportunities.
Since moral aspects seems to be modifying the license, these are just integrated in the README.md and are still a condition to:
- Expect the community to be welcoming.
- Expect free or even paid support (moral/integrity is more important than $$$ for us).
- Expect the contributions to be accepted/integrated.
So if you don't want to respect the moral precisions, up to you to use the project, but please
be coherent with yourself and don't use our time/energy; just improve/implement things by yourself :)
LiteVideo is not longer maintained, does not have CI and is messy (code is ~10 years old where we were
still experimenting the innovative approach with Migen). The core is kept since can be useful as reference
for Video Input and for projects using it but it is not recommended for new designs.
Keeping board definition files directly in LiteX is no longer useful since we are already relying on board
definitions files from LiteX-Boards (https://github.com/litex-hub/litex-boards) in various benches/projects
and having definitions files directly in LiteX creates confusion/additional work.
For projects using board definition files from LiteX, the litex.boards import can just be replaced with litex_boards:
from litex.boards.platforms import kc705
from litex_boards.platforms import kc705
- improve presentation
- add link to #litex freenode channel.
- add example of complex SoC.
- make it directly usable on Wiki.
- only keep one quick start guide.
- add community paragraph and link to Litex-Hub.
