@Beherith i have a question does bar org have an official email address for all licenses queries? if yes we should get that handled in this pr

Beherith commented 1 month ago

Yeah, license inquiries should go to info@beyondallreason.info Also, I've decided to go with MIT for shaders instead of GPL, as its more permissive than GPL.

personally i think it makes more sense to keep that GPLv2 as the rest of the game code is licensed as GPLv2 yes the permissiveness of MIT is nice but it adds extra licenses that people need to be aware of

I personally think the less license types we have ,the better off we are. There was a large effort to condense the amount of license types we had in the past.

I choose MIT. Thank you for your input.
