request to clarify licensing of project

Open NikkyAI opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

is this mod all rights reserved like it says (by default) on curseforge or not? would setting / adding a license be a bother so good people can fork / port a opensource mod ?

Well we definitely need the 1.12.2/1.12.1/1.12 port of this thing ASAP, so I'd like to know the answer to this as well.

Because a licence wasn't specified, the code is allowed to be forked on Github. I assume this means someone could fork the code and update it themselves.

"By setting your repositories to be viewed publicly, you agree to allow others to view and "fork" your repositories (this means that others may make their own copies of Content from your repositories in repositories they control)"

fork, yes, but probably not distribute outside github, same for binaries
