License Update

anthonylavado opened this issue 4 years ago · 68 comments

Sorry for all the messages everyone! My apologies.

The Core Team was recently reminded of the fact that this repository lacks a license for the documentation that has been written by our contributors.

In order to correct this, I am proposing that we license existing and future content under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License(CC-BY-SA-4.0).

Through an analysis performed by Creative Commons and the Free Software Foundation, the license was approved to be listed as one-way compatible with the GNU General Public License Version 3 (GPLv3), and this is suitable for software documentation and code examples contained within.

A follow up post in this issue will tag all listed contributors and potential contributors who have open Pull Requests, to explicitly approve this change.

The main site content itself is ND, but not pertaining to the documentation. We'll look at that though.
