Add a license file?
Opened this issue · 6 comments
Hi, adding a license to the repo would help clear up rights using this. Should probably be the same license as the system-under-test in case the repos merge at some stage? I'm guessing this stuff is GPL 2.0 because the main RTL repo is GPL2, but not sure.
Well I should have set a CC-license for the recordings. Now I actually think each and every recording is copyrighted by the respective author. But by submitting sample files it is implied that a recording can be distributed under fair use to make sure that the corresponding decoder code doesn't regress.
Sounds reasonable, it'd be quite a hassle to track down licensing for the past recordings. Perhaps we should ask for a license for new contributions?
In any case, how about putting a license on the python test runner & Makefile, independent of the recordings? It'd smooth the wheels for me to get company approval to contribute, and help you have more certainty around code licensing.
@zuckschwerdt can you sort out the license for the test code?
Code is just from Emmanuel, you, and me. MIT would be simple and permissive for this short snippet. @enavarro222 @merbanan are you ok with MIT license terms for run_test.py?
@zuckschwerdt yes MIT license is fine.
I'm also ok with MIT license terms.
