Add a license #6

Can I recommend that the content of the website is made available under a CC-BY 4.0 license?

And then the code of the website can be under an open source software license? I like the MIT license but I don't really mind whatever one the community wants to pick!

You could adapt the Turing Way's license text if that would be useful: https://github.com/the-turing-way/the-turing-way/blob/main/LICENSE.md

And then I noticed that the draft website says "Add our licence" in the footer text - so that needs updating - ideally to CC-BY as the text / content is not the code.

This is just a dev website, it'll be copied to the production website repo https://github.com/uk-tre/website/ when it's ready and we can delete this one.

Want me to move the issue to that repository? The point still stands that content should use a CC license rather than a software license 😄
