We need a software license for this and the other sidora repos

Answer 1 · 2020-03-10T21:59:01.000Z

I think you can just add MIT to the DESCRIPTION file, can't you? That's what I did for sidora.cli.

Ja - MIT would be OK with me. usethis::use_mit_license().

Or should we go with GPL? At the moment this code is not very important, but in the future there might be a public version of Pandora.

Yup MIT is also fine with me.

I don't think we care so much if companies use the code as this is technically internal for us anyway. I will also add to the web app

@nevrome is there any difference between using the github LICENSE file vs what is needed ofr a typical R package/CRAN?

I don't think so, @jfy133. But you have to mention the license file in the DESCRIPTION

License: MIT + file LICENSE
