Awesome! Thanks to you and icebraining for the responses. The Non-Commercial distinction makes sense.
To be clear though, would a CC BY or CC BY SA license be fine, then? It's not listed on the OSI Approved Licenses list (which is the issue others took earlier in the thread, or so I thought), but those would appear to serve the same ideals that approved licenses do. If that wouldn't be fine, I'd love to better understand why not.
- icebraining 15y agoI don't know what's the OSI position, but they're considered Free by the FSF/GNU, although they'd prefer if people used something else, since they're GPL-incompatible. https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#ccby https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#ccby
- cdcarter 15y agoThe rhetoric that tends to be thrown around is that CC licenses aren't specifically designed for code, and that there are other licenses that accomplish the same thing but cover your bases better.
