The attribution relaxation in this is a nice step forward for trivial bits of code. I've seen too many Javascript applications that use 100+ small MIT-licensed dependencies, so the copyright statements end up being a significant portion of the minified code!
- Conan_Kudo 8y agoI'm actually a little disturbed that attribution is removed. What's the point then? People generally don't write software for free so that they can't even get basic credit.

- meditate 8y agoI see it covering the same use case as CC0, which is trivial bits of code that benefit mostly from mass adoption. In the case of this license it would be useful for code fitting that description which also may be covered by patents.
