Add a license to the repository #1

Closed cbjuan closed 2 months ago

I recently came across your project does-rpi3-qiskit and I noticed that the repository github.com/DynamicDevices/does-rpi3-qiskit currently does not have a license specified.

Why Adding a License is Important?

As GitHub documents

Public repositories on GitHub are often used to share open source software. For your repository to truly be open source, you'll need to license it so that others are free to use, change, and distribute the software.

Would be possible to add a valid license to this repository? Probably something really OpenSource such as the Apache 2.0 license would fit really well.

Thanks!

Hi @cbjuan @vabarbosa ....

I've been working on a Quantum Safe encryption repo for Yocto which is here

https://github.com/DynamicDevices/meta-quantum-safe

Now I have the license down as MIT as this is the main license of the OQS project.

However they do state various sub-components of that project are under different licenses and I want to get this all aligned properly.

Given you both seem to have an interest in Quantum and licensing I wondered if you'd be willing to take a quick look and speak with me on best practice? Thanks in advance!
