Request: add a link to the "Appendix" page in the footer #1197

Could you please add a link to the Appendix page to the footer of the site?

Also, I feel like it should be renamed from "Appendix" to "All Licenses" to better capture what the page is. Thoughts?

@DeflateAwning :

I think "Appendix" is a more legal term, while also being the most declarative in terms of lexical definition

See the "Appendix" section in EUPL

choosealicense.com is not a legal document. It is intended for regular people (well, software developers and other creators). The website is intended to be an easy-to-use UI for these complicated legal texts ("licenses").

As with any UI, it should be relatable, and should use the lexicology (the "words") which the users are familiar with.

Eschew obfuscation.
