Add Polyform Shield 1.0.0 License #33

Closed asim closed 3 years ago

asim commented 4 years ago

I'd like to propose to add the polyform shield license. This has the same properties as the other polyform licenses with one caveat, it prevents people from running the software for commercial and resell purposes. It maintains the spirit of open source but gates AWS and others from direct use to potentially start a conversation on fair value usage.

This license does not appear to be on the SPDX license list.

asim commented 4 years ago

I will get it added to SPDX

rsc commented 3 years ago

Did you get an SPDX identifier? I still don't see it in the list. Also, if you want to proceed with this change, you'd need to add a test, by creating a file in testdata/. Thanks.

asim commented 3 years ago

I have not had the opportunity to get the spdx identifier. I'll close this pull request and reopen when I've done the required things.
