[REQ] Add a (GH-compliant) license file #1

Open MarcoRavich opened 4 months ago

MarcoRavich commented 4 months ago

Hi there, 1st of all thanks for this awesome work !

Since we've 'doxed' it in our HyMPS project (under AUDIO category \ Effects page \ Guitar subpage \ Pedals section \ Distorsion), can you please add a GH-compliant license file for it ?

As you know, expliciting licensing terms is extremely important to let anyone better/faster understand how to reuse/adapt/modify sources (and not only) in other open projects and vice-versa.

Although it may sounds like a minor aspect, license file omission obviously causes an inconsistent generation of the relative badge too:

(badge-generator URL: https://badgen.net/github/license/biocommando/FuzzOfDoom)

You can easily set a standardized one through the GH's license wizard tool.

Last but not least, let us know how we could improve - in your opinion - our categorizations and links to resources in order to favor collaboration between developers (and therefore evolution) of listed projects.

Hope that helps/inspires !

Bump (request updated).

I'll look into this. Currently this project requires VST2 SDK to build and it's not legally possible. I have previously done some work to support the FST framework for my plugins but it's also on a bit gray area on the legality side (e.g. the FST repo has disappeared from Github) and my reverse engineering method was maybe a bit on the gray area as well. I have made some experiments with JUCE, and now that my favorite DAW supports CLAP, it might make sense to make my plugins CLAP compatible.

Anyway, I currently have very limited free time at my hand so it won't happen overnight.
