license as public domain? #65

Open derhuerst opened 4 years ago

derhuerst commented 4 years ago

It's a bit impractical that I need to provide attribution when I derive work from FPTF, because

I propose to re-license (or un-license rather) FPTF into the public domain to allow for more wide-spread usage. This would require all contributors to acknowledge this change.

GTFS is currently licensed as Apache-2.0.

Maybe CC0 would be better? Public domain can be tricky when one applies legal situation very strictly.

matkoniecz commented 3 years ago
