Provide type of licence field for services and functions #112

Closed jbonnet closed 7 years ago

jbonnet commented 7 years ago

To implement the two different kinds of licensing for services and functions we have agreed, I suggest to add somewhere within the descriptors a licence type field. If absent, the service/function would be considered Public (i.e., any developer can reuse it, any customer can buy). If present and with Private value, an extra field should also be present and filled with a URL (i.e., download by a developer or acquisition by a customer will call this URL for validation). I think that in this way we can remove most of the complexity of managing software licences, while allowing for scenarios where that can be taken into account.

What do you think?
