Add LICENSE and MAINTAINERS files #7

Closed hjacobs closed 8 years ago

Please add LICENSE and MAINTAINERS files as described in our "How To Open Source" guide: https://github.com/zalando/zalando-howto-open-source

hjacobs commented 8 years ago

And also add a .catwatch.yaml file to have a proper title on our Open Source page, example: https://github.com/zalando/zmon-controller/blob/master/.catwatch.yaml

Under which license do we maintain the guidlines? Creative commons?

ePaul commented 8 years ago

I think CC-BY is suitable here (we don't need share-alike, do we?). It seems equivalent to the MIT license for software. (You can follow the example of the "howto open-source" repository for that.)

I volunteer to be one of the names in the MAINTAINERS file.

fmueller commented 8 years ago

For MAINTAINERS file I'll add all from the API guild.

CC-BY seems to do the job.

fmueller commented 8 years ago

Solved.
