The license seems to be GPL 2.0.
It is an interesting decision to finish the project like this.
I would, in their place, use the chance to free the code into a more permissive license such as MIT, CC0 or the like, but in any event the author is already generous enough to offer it as copyleft; kudos to them.
- pabs3 3y agoRelicensing isn't possible because the project doesn't have a single copyright holder.
- snvzz 3y agoYou're right. It would require every contributors' permission, as (likely) there was no contribution agreement to transfer ownership.
- gaganyaan 3y agoThe author was extra generous and protected your rights by releasing it under the GPL
