B-Con
Licence missing
We would like to integrate the files but need a known licence to know if we are allowed or not. Could you please add a licence file?
My fault. I simply looked for a LICENSE file and didn't check the README, as I expect the README to contain intructions how to use the software.
But as it seems that I am not the only one, maybe adding a LICENCE file would still make sense? I.e. creative commons (CC0)?
I agree with you, but unfortunately I haven't seen the author here lately. @B-Con
Hello B-Con, Public Domain is in some countries problematic. Is there a possibility to assign a permissive license (e.g., MIT, BSD 3-clause) for Commercial use of the code. A statement like the following would help: "For Commercial use this code can be used under the MIT license."
Or do a re-licensing to a permissive license for the whole code. Than a license file would be nice.
Thanks in advance. Siegfried Oesterreicher
I'd like to add to the request for an explicit license — Public Domain is not really well recognized.
To keep with the spirit of your licensing, would you consider using Unlicense ? It's recognized by many organization, although it's not (yet?) OSI-approved.
For others to use this code, it would also be great to have SDPX headers as recommended by REUSE.software — that way there's a clear indication of copyright and license, and makes it easier to import into other projects.
