HackDC's Licencing Policy

Proposed Baltimore Node Policy

Potential licenses

  • Over the Shoulder Open License - we cannot dictate how you use the things you build, but if folks are around, they'll probably check out what you're doing and might feel inclined to ask you about it.
  • DWTFYW - http://sam.zoy.org/wtfpl/
  • Non-policy - if we are not a business, and we do not build it for you, you have to decide how it will be licensed. Good luck with that.
