I might get away with such custom set of licensing terms, but to ease processing (if not by lawyers in a later dispute then at least by fellow distro maintainers wanting to categorize, identify, verify etc.) it is recommended that you instead pick a common license. Preferrably one of those tracked by SPDX as listed at <https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/#license-specification>. Seems what you want is as liberal and as briefly expressed license as possible. A popular common license of that kind is "Expat". ideally you refer to that license by its canonical URL <http://www.jclark.com/xml/copying.txt> but since you seem to seek as brief as possible expression, you could simply state e.g. "Licensed under the Expat license." I am not a lawyer, just interested in licensing and pay attention to licensing patterns commonly expressed by upstreams of Debian and approved in Debian. YMMV. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
