Estonia intends to cancel the requirement to licence X-road code with EUPL #16

Closed tormi closed 9 years ago

RIA has prepared an amendment which cancels the requirement to use an EUPL licence from X-road legislation (section 4). @andreskytt , what is the reasoning behind this?

tormi commented 9 years ago

Ok, got some additional information - the reason is not to be that restrictive as particular licence is. Licencing principles will not change, but intention is to enable some other open source licences as options (MIT is under consideration).
