Missing License

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Hi!

First of all, I've been reading through the paper associated with this repository and it's an absolutely fantastic introduction to baysean bandit tests so thank you for sharing and all of the hard work that I'm sure has gone into this project.

Second, the standard disclaimer: I am not a lawyer, and this does not constitute legal or financial advice.

Generally, IMHO, it is a good idea to use FSF or OSI Approved Licenses (which can be found here https://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html and here http://opensource.org/licenses/category)
The Free Software Foundation has a useful guide for choosing a license: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-recommendations.html

I often reference the Software Freedom Law Center's Legal Primer for both practical and academic purposes (highly recommended): https://www.softwarefreedom.org/resources/2008/foss-primer.html#x1-60002.2

https://tldrlegal.com/ is quite a useful resource for comparing the various FOSS licenses out there once you have some context
To get ahold of actual lawyers/advisors who help FOSS projects, you can reach out to the FSF, SFLC, and OSI at:
licensing@fsf.org
help@softwarefreedom.org
license-discuss@opensource.org

Hope this helps, and happy hacking!

Thanks for the warning - I will update!
