Add option for license: UNLICENSED #34

Closed Flet closed 8 years ago

Flet commented 8 years ago

Any thoughts on adding UNLICENSED as an option for licenses? Possibly also set "private": "true" in package.json?

ungoldman commented 8 years ago

Sounds reasonable to me :+1:

Opting for allowing "private": "true" to be set and adding The Unlicense as a licensing option.

Flet commented 8 years ago

The Unlicense sounds like the opposite of UNLICENSED https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json#license

Finally, if you do not wish to grant others the right to use a private or unpublished package under any terms:

{ "license": "UNLICENSED"}

also a very long issue on npm where this is discussed (was interesting to read) https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/8918

...ultimately ending in this comment

Both SEE LICENSE IN and UNLICENSED are defined and functional in the latest released versions of npm@2 and npm@3,

Oh I see! Thanks for clarifying, I should have looked it up :)

I will add that too.
