what the title says

jamuhl commented 5 years ago

you talking about the documentation repo? or i18next?

MIT

hmmm I probably got lost as I landed from googling... Thanks for the information.

Hi,

I'd like to know what is the license of the documentation and the logo. I might use the logo in a derivative work (for babel-plugin-i18next-extract). It would be nice to make it clear whether I can or cannot do this. Thanks :)

jamuhl commented 5 years ago

@gilbsgilbs sure you can use it if related...

Nice, thanks.

I'm not an expert at all, yet I don't think disallowing usage of the logo in non i18next-related projects is MIT-compatible. This causes a tiny issue for me because I don't know under which license I am allowed to release my derivative work (definitely not MIT which is the license of my repo).

I hate this kind of useless and time-consuming discussions and I feel very sorry about this :disappointed: .

The logo itself (and docs) has no explicit licence (I'm not a lawyer - but guess this makes it all rights reserved) -> the i18next code repo is MIT licenced...

jamuhl commented 5 years ago

But as said...do with it what is useful...as long you don't make a commercial project with it ;)

Thanks for the clarification @jamuhl .
