I wanted to say thank you for using actual Open Source licenses. It's gotten to where I treat any recent "Launch HN" or "Show HN" containing "open source" in the title as "well, I wonder which crazy license this project is using"
- dang 3y agoCan you point me to examples of Launch HNs using funky licenses? Show HNs are free-form but Launch HNs are curated by us, and I'd like to know what red flags to watch for. (As this is offtopic for the current Show HN, it might be better for to email hn@ycombinator.com if you, or anyone, would be willing to share that way.)
- mdaniel 3y agoI sent email to avoid being a distraction, but I did want to follow up publicly and say that I apologize for lumping Launch HN into the same bucket as Show HN. For the most part the Launch ones are really Open Source and I apologize for the over generalization :-(
