What is the open hardware license? #2

Hi,

The open source license for the hardware seems to be missing. If you have not selected a specific hardware license yet, I suggest the TARP license as it protects users freedom, just like other software copy-left license (e.g. GPL)

The TAPR Open Hardware License https://tapr.org/?page_id=5968

For example the EEZ Bench Box 3 (https://www.crowdsupply.com/envox/eez-bb3) uses the license.

Cheers
