What changed
germanuaas the public rights-holder name.Cargo.lockand added reproducibility checks.Why
The previous documents did not fully distinguish allowed noncommercial redistribution from prohibited resale, and binary package definitions did not consistently ship exact third-party notices. This prepares the project for donations and future official paid builds without changing runtime behavior.
Impact
There are no application behavior changes. Release artifacts now carry the required legal files, dependency-notice drift is checked in CI, and future external contributions explicitly grant the project owner rights needed for official commercial builds.
