Could we have a more "friendly" license in this? about cmlfs

[dslm4515]

I haven't looked into licensing yet. I also don't remember what the default is for github. I made my repository locally and uploaded to github as means of backup, portability and sharing with who ever is interested in my work.

MIT it is.

Well, that's the spirit of open source!

I think suitable with MIT or BSD-2-Clause.

Now that I think about it, why should I worry... say if a company commercializes CMLFS into a OS for profit? From what i understand, GNU GPL3 requires that if CMLFS is used in another project, that project has to be licensed under GNU GPL3.

I suppose I would go for GNU GPL3 if wrote all the source code myself :P

Just choose the one that suits with you.

How about:

GNU General Public License v3.0 ?

I just want a license such that anyone can share & modify code, as long as credit is given. BUT i do not want my work used in closed-source projects and I do not want to be liable for warranties (my work is a result of passion and not for making money)

I think that, for documentation, CC-BY 4.0 would fit perfectly.
Now, for code, i think GPL v2 would be nice; it's the same license that Linux itself and it's largely used, unlike GPL v3 which is a relatively recent license.

Edit: nvm, MIT suits this perfectly.
