- vince_at_iode 4y agoThere are dozens of repository, starting from here: https://gitlab.com/iode/os https://gitlab.com/iode/os Licenses are at the root of each one. Our policy is the following: - for existing repositories that we fork (the vast majority of them), we just keep the existing license. - for repositories that we create from scratch without reusing existing code, we use the AGPLv3 license.
- tokai 4y agoThe announcement is totally useless without a license.
- vince_at_iode 4y agoAs answered in another comment, there is not just one license, there are plenty of licenses, in each repository we published. Most of them are forks of AOSP / lineage repositories, and keep their original licenses, and some of them are fully ours, and are licensed under AGPLv3.
- commoner 4y agoI appreciate the source code release, but there needs to be a software license in the repo to allow users to discern whether the code is free and open source, or just source-available. Without a license, the code is only source-available because no exemptions to automatic copyright protections have been granted. Also, the graphic in the announcement uses the Open Source Initiative's trademarked logo, which is reserved for software released under OSI-approved licenses: > The OSI logo is a trademark of Open Source Initiative. In order to protect and grow the OSI brand, we have a distinguishable logo that can be used to mark software licensed under an OSI Approved License. When displaying the OSI logo, please follow our standard Trademark Guidelines. https://opensource.org/logo-usage-guidelines#The_OSI_Logo:_Usage_Guidelines https://opensource.org/logo-usage-guidelines#The_OSI_Logo:_U...
