License clarification #8

Closed dcormier closed 8 years ago

dcormier commented 9 years ago

I am not a lawyer, but looking at the license for this library it reads like I have to include that full notice, which would then tell my users that they can make copies of and sell "the 'Software'" (my software).

Is this what was intended?

COPYING contains the text of the MIT license. I am not a lawyer either, but I think the license only applies to distribution of the source code and not any binary form. I believe you are free to do whatever you want with the code except redistribute it in source form without that license file. I also believe you are not required to distribute any source code, either yours or mine, and that this license does not interfere with any license you choose for your software.
