Their license text has always been my favorite (well, perhaps except for the original JSON license):
* The author disclaims copyright to this source code. In place of a legal notice, here is a blessing:
* May you do good and not evil.
* May you find forgiveness for yourself and forgive others.
* May you share freely, never taking more than you give.
edit: thanks for the correction about the jquery license.
- adzm 6y agoWhat is the original JQuery license?
- dangoor 6y agoLikely referring to the [JSON license](https://www.json.org/license.html https://www.json.org/license.html) and not the jQuery license. The JSON license has this problematic (for many businesses) phrase: The Software shall be used for Good, not Evil.
- ZeroClickOk 6y agodo you have the link for the original JSON license? It looks remains only "The Software shall be used for Good, not Evil."
- easton 6y agoThat's what I was talking about. Crawford said in a talk he had to make an amended licenses for corporations (namely, IBM), who had lawyers that needed to be able to get around the evil restriction. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hCimLnIsDA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hCimLnIsDA
