New license request: InnoSetup [SPDX-Online-Tools] #2550

Closed dscho closed 1 week ago

dscho commented 3 months ago

1. License Name: InnoSetup license 2. Short identifier: InnoSetup 3. License Author or steward: Unknown 4. Comments: InnoSetup is an open source program that helps generating Windows-based installers. The InnoSetup license seems to be based on a 3-clause BSD license, with the "origin" exception borrowed from the zlib license. It is thus different to both. 5. License Request Url: http://tools.spdx.org/app/license_requests/387 6. URL(s): https://github.com/jrsoftware/issrc/blob/HEAD/license.txt 7. OSI Status: Unknown 8. Example Projects: https://github.com/jrsoftware/issrc

ScanCode matched id: inno-setup

Comment I've no evidence for widespread adoption of the license. I would argue +1 from a application/use point of view.

@karsten-klein - when you say no evidence for widespread adoption, do you mean in regard to use by other projects? Seems like this project itself is probably widely use, agree?
