Licence Issue #622

Open Elshid opened 8 months ago

It seems as if the rosserial repository is licenced under a BSD-license. However, BSD is not a single licence but a whole collection of licences, with some being Open Source and others not being Open Source (according to the OSI). To make things easy, I recommend the BSD-2-Clause licence (https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause.html). Please add a proper licence file and update the package.xml files accordingly.

Take a look at the header on pretty much any source file in the repo, you'll notice it's a BSD-3-Clause license.

Oh, thanks. The package.xml does only say BSD, which confused me.
