Switch to a standard OSI License #8

Closed tfoote closed 10 years ago

tfoote commented 10 years ago

I've been playing with kokopelli and have been very intrigued. I've been very happy to use it for hobby purposes.

I'd like to pitch using it for a work project however without a standard license it will be very hard to pitch. Would you consider switching to one of the standard OSI approved licenses such as Apache, BSD, or MIT?

OSI Approved Licenses: http://opensource.org/licenses

The current license was designed in collaboration with MIT TLO and should be pretty much equivalent to the MIT license (in my limited legal knowledge), but I recognize that an existing license can be more palatable.

I'll check with MIT TLO about dual-licensing under something more standard and get back to you.

Okay, the software is now dual-licensed, with the second option being the MIT license. https://github.com/mkeeter/kokopelli/blob/master/LICENSE.md
