Still, my view is that it's tough to compliance about this; the choosealicense.com site says "patches welcome", so we should offer them. > I don't believe, however, that my chooser <http://ccil.org/~cowan/floss> > has any such biases. John, have you considered offering text from your license chooser as a patch to chosealicense.com? I think it'd be good to test their claim that they want contribution, and you seem the right person to do it, since you've worked on this problem before. -- -- bkuhn _______________________________________________ License-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://projects.opensource.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/license-discuss
