I’m reconsidering the MIT license pick for various reasons.
Is everybody ok with changing the license?
(We are not going to require copyright assignment so this will become more difficult later)
–Michael
I'm fine with either.
-sv
Fine by me
- Jeremy
That’s fine with me.
Will this be going ahead? It’s still GPLv3 currently.
The core ansible code is and will remain GPL3+, however the code in the modules and the parts that interface with them (the module_utils/*.py files) are licensed using the BSD license so that all modules written by the authors is owned by them. If you have any further questions regarding this, please contact support@ansible.com.
Thanks!
Hi Roger,
Your post is in reply to a post that was 2 years old.
What James says above is correct – every module in core is GPLv3, but modules you write are only mixed in with BSD bits, so you can pick whatever license you like for a module that you don’t intend to contribute back to core.
However, Ansible itself still has assurances that the core bits remain free forever.
