I've noticed that our bestest Keter project still haven't mentioned a license!

So I need to get a consent of every contributor to license their existing contribution in Keter under the MIT license.

Please state your consent, guys. If you not, I'll have to exclude your contribution from the code base and probably rewrite it myself.

I don't mind, MIT license is suitable for my contribution.

hagane commented 7 years ago

As far as I care, everything I release to the general public without explicit license statement is available under WTFPL. So yeah, feel free to slap a MIT License on it. Wait, that reminds me. Wouldn't CC-BY-SA be more suitable for non-code parts, like game design documents and art assets?

ForNeVeR commented 7 years ago

Regarding the documentation: MIT explicitly mentions it in this software and associated documentation files (the "Software").

Regarding the assets: this kinda complicates the story. Aren't they included in the definition of "this software"?

hagane commented 7 years ago

It's a gray area, esp. if someone would want to use said assets in another project. There be legalese-breathing dragons. Separate license for assets will clarify a lot of use cases. Though it will marginally complicate our process too.

ForNeVeR commented 7 years ago

Alright then. Right now we have no assets aside of the documentation, which is covered by MIT. So I think that MIT will be enough for now. Later, when/if we add any other kind of assets, we'll clarify the licensing to cover it.

Akon32 commented 7 years ago

Okay, MIT license is suitable.

ForNeVeR commented 7 years ago

Thank you guys. I will sort out the remaining issues, create a license PR, and merge the existing PRs in the nearest time.
