Hi guys

As discussed after the meetup I liked it quite a lot (thanks for making it happen!) and would like to offer this in my company as a one-time training. There is no direct commercial benefit intended, it is more to show the people how a blockchain basically is built and manipulated. I am mostly interested in the first part of the meetup up until we verified if a block was tampered with. I expect the slides to be inspired but not copied from yours, and I would also add related topics to the agenda. So it would be cool to understand if I can take inspiration on your work :)

Thanks!

Cheers Tony

The code the top level directory (the ready made blockchain) and basic API are from https://github.com/dvf/blockchain which is MIT licensed. The code in notebooks/ was written by us from scratch after reading the original dvf/blockchain code and other mini blockchain posts out there. I'd be happy to license that under BSD3.

The slides are potentially harder to sort out as they might contain figures of unknown source(??). Otherwise I would suggest CC-BY 4.0 as license for all original content in the slides.

Tick the box below if this licensing works for you. If everyone agrees I will add a LICENSE to the repo.

BSD3 for the notebooks:

CC BY 4 for the slides:

You should be able to tick yourself off in my comment, I think.

Turns out you have to be a collaborator on this repo to do that. Thanks @Sebubu for pointing that out.

And BSD3 licensed it is :fireworks:

@makatony looks like you are good to go!

Shall we add a LICENSE file? github let's you create a new file with name LICENSE and then you can choose the BSD 3 template. As for the copyright holder needed there, shall we just put all our names? Or github handles? If names, I'd prefer Markus Baden.

And maybe add a License part to the readme, saying that everything is BSD 3 except for the slides?
