Which license shall this project have? We should probably discuss this in the beginning.

TomTomRixRix commented 4 years ago

Points that should be considered in order to wisely select the perfect licence are:

Do any dependencies require us to use a specific licence? Most importantly Django?
Do we want that the code could be used for commercial use? If yes, under which circumstances?

TomTomRixRix commented 4 years ago

Perhaps CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 makes sense. Or is there anything similar specificly designed written for software?

TomTomRixRix commented 4 months ago

Or maybe just CC BY-NC 4.0 so that no share alike is enforced for derivatives. But I'm still not sure if CC licenses are good options for software.
