NONINFRINGEMENT -> NON-INFRINGEMENT #1536

Closed PedanticHacker closed 2 years ago

PedanticHacker commented 2 years ago

The word NONINFRINGEMENT should be written as NON-INFRINGEMENT to improve readability.

Richienb commented 2 years ago

The MIT license uses NONINFRINGEMENT.

PedanticHacker commented 2 years ago

Is there a particular reason behind this specific use of the word NONINFRINGEMENT as opposed to its more readable variant NON-INFRINGEMENT?

Richienb commented 2 years ago

Because that's how it is already: https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT

@Richienb, I guess it is now impossible to edit the license, albeit just adding an insignificant hyphen, after so many software projects have adopted it.
