Missing license

Open marcnause opened this issue 7 years ago • 6 comments

Could you add a license file to the project? Just to be able to refer to something in case sombody nit-picks.

I'd say this is probably public domain, if anything. If 4 minutes and 33 seconds of silence was used, then John Cage may not like it, though. https://github.com/lucperkins/licenses/blob/master/public-domain-unilicense.txt is a candidate as silence is mainly public domain in essence and cannot be copyrighted.

I just want to point out that "license" is an anagram of "silence", which is cool.

its probably illegal to copyright or license silence

The only license I could see used for this is maybe the WTFPL. John Cage's 4'33" comes to mind as well, how can that be enforceable when it too is silence? Closest he can do is WTFPL as well

Sorry i did the CC0 before i read your comment - I did WTFPL just now so you can pick one. Thanks

Not illegal to license the file containers you've created though.
