Clear up licencing #32

Closed zvr closed 6 years ago

It is mentioned that "[the] project will have all exclusive rights of the logo". However, the work is already released under CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0, which contradicts the "exclusive" part.

Hi @zvr Actually I put this license to prevent someone taking logos as it has no license for the time being. Is there a way to keep the rights and transfer those to the upcoming owner with a more appropriate license?

@arasatasaygin As fair as I know, you won't be able to use a CC license for the repository. Since you are the author, there's really no need to use a Creative Commons license. Just keep the rights and them, when the owners are chosen, you just allow them to use the given logo. Creative Commons implies anyone can come here and take the logos from the repository and just use them, as far as I understand.

Removed license. Thanks @zvr @filipekiss
