Apache 2 Compliance

maudineormsby opened this issue · comments

Apache 2 requires that you have a LICENSE file, a NOTICE file, and a License header on each source file.

See http://www.apache.org/dev/apply-license.html#new

I think we need to:

1: Add a NOTICE File
2: Fix the copyright attribution(s)
3: Add the header to all the source files in the repo.

Maybe this is the time to have a conversation about what license should really be on this. I'm looking for something free/open and non-viral. Anyone have a favorite?

My favorite is Apache 2. I think we have the right license, we just need to apply it properly. I'd love to hear if there are any other opinions though.

No, it's not. :-)

Apache2 looks long, but in effect, it's basically as free, open, and
non-viral as BSD & MIT are. It's just that the Apache2 license takes
pages and pages to deal explicitly with patents.

Footnote to history: Android is Apache2. It really is a good license.

So it sounds like we're in agreement that we should correct how we apply the apache2 license.
