Licensing
Nolij opened this issue ยท 2 comments
The licensing of this project has multiple issues. The CurseForge page for this mod lists WTFPL as the license, but this GitHub repo contains no license file. By not including a license file in the repository, this technically renders the project as ARR (All Rights Reserved), which means no permissions have been given to users. This should be addressed.
Additionally, this mod is forked from Magnesium/Rubidium Extras, which has its own licensing issues (which I have reported in this issue). Regardless of that, the terms of the WTFPL are not included in that mod's repo or on its CurseForge page, so it is arguably not available under WTFPL (despite its mods.toml claiming otherwise). Thus, distributing this project under WTFPL violates the license of its parent project, Magnesium/Rubidium Extras. If you wish to continue (legally) using WTFPL for this mod, you must remove all code taken from Magnesium/Rubidium Extras, or get the developer of that mod to distribute that code to you under WTFPL. Otherwise, I would advise use of LGPL-3.0, or whatever license Magnesium/Rubidium Extras switches to after they close the issue I opened regarding their licensing.
