Hi, I noticed that this repository is public but has no clear license declarations anywhere. Please add some sort of LICENSE declaration so that we can continue making this code public.

Generally, we default to MPL2 for code repos; you can grab a copy from https://www.mozilla.org/media/MPL/2.0/index.815ca599c9df.txt unless another license is necessary due to third-party requirements or other circumstances.

Neat! I'll do this right now.

Do you mind telling me how you identified this problem? I was thinking of writing a bot someday that opened issues about missing licenses. Was this opened by a bot?

I review every new repo created in the org manually. You would be the third or fourth person to propose a bot; if you do decide to write one, reach out to github-owners@m.o and let us know :)

openjck commented 6 years ago

Can do.

Also, just a friendly FYI that you may be missing some repos. I normally create repos under my personal account and then transfer them to the mozilla organization, and I haven't been pinged about missing LICENSEs in those situations.

Yeah, I do my best as a human being, but as you've obviously worked out, a bot could be so much better here. Every six months I email GitHub Support and ask them to prohibit users from forking or transferring repos into our org unless they're licensed. No word to date. Maybe someday.

I appreciate it. You're doing a good job. I would have forgotten about the LICENSE without you. :smile:
