[QUESTION] License? #11

Open naltun opened 5 years ago

naltun commented 5 years ago

First off: wonderful project.

Second: Not sure if you'll include one. But if so, what license do you plan on using for this project?

retroplasma commented 5 years ago

No idea, to be honest.

jingsam commented 5 years ago

I recommend WTFPL

CihanSari commented 5 years ago

I would suggest WTFPL as well. Common downside is the professional use, not many lawyers are OK for us to use a software which has that license name, but I doubt this project will have any professional use anyway.

naltun commented 5 years ago

WTFPL is good. I agree. Otherwise, I'd go for MIT.

@retroplasma At the moment no-one can do things with it: https://choosealicense.com/no-permission/

When you make a creative work (which includes code), the work is under exclusive copyright by default. Unless you include a license that specifies otherwise, nobody else can copy, distribute, or modify your work without being at risk of take-downs, shake-downs, or litigation. Once the work has other contributors (each a copyright holder), “nobody” starts including you.
