Proposal to change template licensing from Unlicense to MIT-0

[aaronbassett]

Hey folks!

I propose changing the license of the various templates under r0gue control from the Unlicense to MIT-0. While I ideologically agree with the Unlicense, licensing software with the Unlicense can have the opposite effect of the desired goal; it can, in reality, make it impossible for people to use the software freely.

For more information on the problems with the unlicense, please see PR #13465 in the archived substrate repo.

I'm happy to make the required changes and submit PRs, but I wanted to start a discussion first, as this will require changes to several repos:

• r0gue-io/pop-cli
• r0gue-io/base-parachain
• r0gue-io/pop-node
• r0gue-io/assets-parachain
• r0gue-io/contracts-parachain
• r0gue-io/evm-parachain

Thanks for the suggestion! After checking out the resources you shared, switching the licenses of our templates to MIT-0 sounds like a great idea:

• r0gue-io/base-parachain
• r0gue-io/assets-parachain
• r0gue-io/contracts-parachain
• r0gue-io/evm-parachain

For r0gue-io/pop-cli we've already decided on the GPL-3.0 license. As for r0gue-io/pop-node, we still need to determine the most suitable license, so let's hold off on that for now.
