License Query #47

Open darigovresearch opened 3 years ago

Many people have inquired on the mailing list and in person (when that was possible) to be able to use the ac node/doorbot system for their own hackspace or other office. Would be helpful to have a license so it's clear what reuse is allowed for the code and hardware associated to the project.

May also encourage people to make fixes, new feature improvements and contribute back with pull requests.

Can anyone advise on what the license of this repository and the associated repositories?

@mich181189 has mentioned that he is happy to put a license on one of the other repositories (https://github.com/londonhackspace/acnode-dashboard/issues/7#issuecomment-846636856) do any of the other contributors and maintainers of this repository have any thoughts on the license for this repository?

It's worth mentioning that very little of the code in this repo is used nowadays - only the bit in mqtt-listeners. The only pre-existing code in there is for the bandwidth meter - the rest I reimplemented for MQTT

Thanks for mentioning that. Is it worth deprecating the old unused code by archiving this repository & porting the code used into a new repository to make it clearer what is and is not being used?
