Your package is missing the LICENSE file

Question

Your package is missing the LICENSE file

stof opened this issue 9 years ago · 4 comments

There is no license in this package (and no license info in the composer.json either).

This effectively means that your project is proprietary, even if the source code is public

you should also add the LICENSE file at the root IMO (btw, this will allow the license to be detected by the new github license API)

Fair enough. Thanks for the PR / issues!

Note that (as the version number indicates) this project is new and not stable - not that I intend to change much.

@pjcdawkins this is not a reason to omit the license though (it would be a pain if people actually start contributing and then you change the license to an open-source one, as you would have to ask them all to agree about the change)

btw, to avoid any issue by a picky legal guy, I'm fine with the MIT license (I'm the only contributor except you in the history)
