Inconsistent licensing

Open pombredanne opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

The top level license is a simplified, 2-Clause BSD license. The code has these "Released under revised BSD license." ... which typically means this is a 3-Clause-BSD

We should update this terse statement to be clearer.

@bastikr while we are at it, your name is spelled Kraemer in the code copyright notices and Krämer in the doc: https://github.com/bastikr/boolean.py/blob/4903f4e7705b576fea3eccacc9c49fe870bcd10b/docs/conf.py#L41

Which one do you prefer?

I would prefer it written as Krämer. And by the way, thank you very much for the work you are putting into this package! Regarding the licensing issue - I have no preference either way. Are there arguments for one or the other? I guess it really doesn't matter much.

@bastikr there is nothing fundamentally special about one vs. the other. The simplified, 2 clause versions is simpler. The key is to be consistent.
