No license #33

Right now the repo has a de facto no license, it would be nice to get it under Creative Commons or MIT or unlicense or something

that's the thing. initially it was MIT licensed. but most of the icons are logo of others which we couldn't claim that as licensed under the MIT I guess. so I don't really know what license supposed to, that's why I removes the license.

I'm planning to just add "logo/names used in icons mostly trademarked or registered trademarks of their respective holders. do not use for commercial use or something." but I'm not really sure.

There's probably a CC license for that, otherwise yeah you could just write a custom license that says something to the effect of "as the artist i allow all use of these icons to the extent that I am allowed by other copyright"

I think I add desclaimer to the README like what you saying.
