Question on license of challenges #383

Open jameschensmith opened 7 months ago

jameschensmith commented 7 months ago

I have a personal VimGolf repository for my solutions and I would like to source control some of the challenge data (e.g., description, input, output) in my repository to help with validating the solutions in a pipeline. Would it be possible to clarify the licensing of the challenges, and whether I can source control the solutions? Thank you!

Wow, I would never ask such a thing and just do what I want with the data of a simple website like vimgolf !

That's fair. I guess I've just been stung in the past with projects like Advent of Code (AoC), which state the following:

Can I copy/redistribute part of Advent of Code? Please don't. Advent of Code is free to use, not free to copy. If you're posting a code repository somewhere, please don't include parts of Advent of Code like the puzzle text or your inputs. If you're making a website, please don't make it look like Advent of Code or name it something similar.

I just want to make sure I'm being respectful by asking before doing.
