License for JSON.g4 #1607

Open buchner opened 4 years ago

buchner commented 4 years ago

I would like to use this grammar in a free open source project. Although there are dozens of JSON libs with an open software license, for my purpose this grammar would be the tool of my choice. Unfortunately, it does not seem to have license information. Would it be possible to specify a license?

I suggest using MIT or BSD license. @parrt @teverett do you have objections?

teverett commented 4 years ago

It was actually created by @parrt, from his antlr book. Perhaps he could recommend a license.

parrt commented 4 years ago

Hmm...it would have to follow the book license. oh i found a note from publisher:

"You can use the code if you include a copyright notice along with it stating that the included code is copyrighted and including the name of the book, author, and publisher."

teverett commented 4 years ago

@parrt any objections to me adding a LICENSE file into the directory with that in it?

parrt commented 4 years ago

no obj as long as it has that info but i don't think we can include a diff license that the prag prog copyright.

buchner commented 4 years ago

Thank you for the clarification. For me it looks similar to the BSD license with the advertising clause.

Marti2203 commented 4 years ago

This is done right?

KvanTTT commented 3 years ago

Not done since the license file is still missing.
