Philosophy
RomM is built for its users, not for shareholders: self-hosted, open-source, no tracking, no upsells. The core app is licensed under GNU AGPLv3, and other projects in the umbrella use permissive licenses (GPLv3 for software, CC0 for documentation).
RomM is and will always be free and open-source software.
