DOCS Add a license #10

Closed camfindlay closed 8 years ago

You need to license your code in order to truly open source it. It allows others to legally reuse your work.

Thanks for the assist! I have to do that for my other modules too. Any suggestions for standards I should follow? Or places I can read up on the proper license to use?

Thanks again, Andy

We have recently released the module standard over at https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/3.2/developer_guides/extending/modules/#module-standard

For license use, you can look at choosealicense.com note we mostly use the BSD license for SilverStripe CMS modules as it's the most permissive (lets other use and reuse your module if that is what your intentions are).

cheers :D
