  • Changes comply with the maintainer guide.
  • SHA512s are updated for each updated download.
  • The "supports" clause reflects platforms that may be fixed by this new version.
  • Any fixed CI baseline entries are removed from that file.
  • Any patches that are no longer applied are deleted from the port's directory.
  • The version database is fixed by rerunning ./vcpkg x-add-version --all and committing the result.
  • Only one version is added to each modified port's versions file.

The port is at version 0.8.1, and that version was using "the GNU General Public License version 3 (GPLv3), with the option for a commercial license without the GPLv3 restrictions available for a fee", https://github.com/simpleble/simpleble/tree/v0.8.1?tab=License-1-ov-file.

So neither MIT nor BUSL-1.1.

0.9.0 seems to be the first version under BUSL.
