Update license to BSD-2-Clause #390

Closed sabgit closed 7 months ago

sabgit commented 5 years ago

The license is currently set to BSD which is ambiguous. Can you please update to "BSD-2-Clause" (see https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause.html)

Per https://github.com/estools/escodegen/blob/master/package.json#L52 , it is set to BSD-2-Clause and has been for quite some time. I'm guessing perhaps you were looking at the license for an older version.

I think this issue can be closed.

Can I ask what license it was before? The same just not enough specified?

papandreou commented 7 months ago

It's under version control, so you can find that in the git history: https://github.com/estools/escodegen/commit/02d47fee6e9822173d408123a9ea2583aa16cb38

Yes I saw that. but since before it was just BSD I dont know if the license was just better specified or it was changed. But then I will assume it was Clause 2 already before.

papandreou commented 7 months ago

Before it was pointing at this url, which is also under version control: https://github.com/estools/escodegen/commits/master/LICENSE.BSD

So it has been the 2-clause version all along. The only change that has been made to it was the addition of a copyright notice.

Alright perfect! Thank you.
