README.md #5

Closed Ryuno-Ki closed 11 years ago

Ryuno-Ki commented 11 years ago

I wrote down a small README to have something to present to visitors :) We can announce plans there, too.

Would you add the license terms? (e.g. "all rights reserved" - until we have a better idea? What about SemVering our project?

Markdown isn't that hard, so I can care for the markup, if you like.

How about a GPL license? About versioning: Up until now I've never versioned anything. Let's wait until there is some sort of API before we think about that.

Hm, I'm contributing to an IRC Bot, written in Python and released under the EFLv2 - the author compared some licenses and wrote down his reason for choosing this unknown license. Good reading!

Why would anybody want to have copyright notices in a public license when authorship is preserved anyway? Requirement A should be satisfied by the GPL. Why is GPLv3 missing in the comparison?

Ryuno-Ki commented 11 years ago

As far as I understand the rest of the text it is rather worries about shipping a LICENSE.txt (like GPL forces to do for offline end-users). When were GPLv3 released? The site is about eight years old or so.

2007, it seems

No guess. When my twitter client works again, I'll ask him.
