Where's the license

Open burdickjp opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

Your laser cutter looks awesome, but I don't see a license anywhere on the repo. Am I missing something?

I use the CERN license following OSHWA guidelines for my open source hardware projects. http://www.ohwr.org/projects/cernohl/wiki

thanks ... and forgot to add one when I first uploaded the repo - treat as public domain!

Will upload a statement to that effect at some point

thanks D

If it is no different to you, use a license which guarantees derivative work is also free by adopting an open hardware license. Public domain does not guarantee this, and can be detrimental to the community. Just upload the cern license and continue about your day. You won't see the difference, but we (the community) will! http://www.ohwr.org/attachments/2388/cern_ohl_v_1_2.txt

I'm fairly indifferent... CERN license sounds ok, will add when near a suitable computer
