Thanks. Well I'm not sure. Anyway the Backbone.js app and design (html/css/img) was contributed by Jérôme Gravel-Niquet (http://jgn.me/ http://jgn.me/) to be included as an example into the Backbone.js repository. All the credits for him. I just commented one line and added other one to the Backbone.js app. And I've developed the whole GAE application.

If you put it on Github, you probably should figure it out. I'm not sure what happens if you don't put any explicit licence in there, but I think that it is just public domain right now. Especially if you say that you don't have any licence in mind. Just sayin', if you don't mind, public domain is as good as it gets if you want to share your code.

  Public domain? Based on what exactly? Unless there is license granting you some rights, you don't have any rights to that code (you cannot legally download, use, modify, copy or redistribute it).

    Where does it say that exactly? It's a public repository and the author is explicitly linking to it while saying that he has no plans of enforcing any licence.

      In the "Copyright Act". Please don't ask me for specific quote, because I don't know US law, but from what I've read on the topic (http://www.ucop.edu/ott/faculty/crothers.html http://www.ucop.edu/ott/faculty/crothers.html, http://www.wisconsin.edu/gc-off/deskbook/copyrgt.htm http://www.wisconsin.edu/gc-off/deskbook/copyrgt.htm), it's pretty much the same as in the rest of the world, that is: Copyright is automatically granted to the creator of the work (or his employer, in case of "work for hire") and anyone who wants to legally use it needs permission (license) from the copyright holder.
