What if CopperSpice copy code from you?

The license is compatible. And you can't change the license.

I don't care. Given all of the branding changes, other than a one line fix to something, it would be an awful lot of work for them, but OpenSource means just that, OpenSource.

There is actually some legal threshold, which I do not remember off the top of my head, about how much code one can steal without even posting a comment in the code stating where it came from.

As this progresses, there will be incredibly small overlap. Most of the stuff is getting nuked/replaced. Using GLFW only for the graphics layer will allow not only for the nuking of all "platform graphics" support but also allow the widget core code to directly use GLFW API instead of wrapper calls.

One last follow-up on this. New modules having only a Roland Hughes/Logikal Solutions or Basis Doctrina copyright will be released under the Basis Doctrina License.
