- solcloud 2y agothis is awesome :D
- fluoridation 2y agoJust FWI, it's not illegal to add an incorrect license to a repository you don't have the rights to. It's simply a lie. The copyright notice is just a statement from the author, it doesn't per se define the terms under which the project is distributed. What defines them is the fact that it's the author who put the file there.
- Vinnl 2y agoHeh, fair enough I suppose, though it's definitely not very nice to make people believe that I can give them permission to do things, when I don't.
