Can we resell a paid module in the Odoo apps after making some changes in the code with an additional feature ?

Question

Hi, i would like to know whether i can resell a paid module in the Odoo apps, after making some changes in the code and adding some extra features ?
The license of the module is "Odoo Proprietary License v1.0"

You are not supposed to modify the code of the module you purchased anyway (lets call it module A).
Here is my understanding :
1/ You need to make your modifications in a separate module (module B) that depends/inherits from module A.
2/ you can sell your module B... but the end user will need module A to use module B, so he will also need to purchase module A from the author of module A (which is not you obviously, as you are not allowed to distribute module A, as highlighted by odoo proprietar

The proprietery license at https://www.odoo.com/documentation/user/10.0/legal/licenses/licenses.html [1] states:

"It is forbidden to publish, distribute, sublicense, or * sell *copies of the Software or * modified copies * of the Software."

So, no, you can't.

It answers your questions (so the answer is no), + it gives solution to do what you wanted initiallty (i.e. sell modifications you brought to a module)
