What Source Code License to use for your project?
- by Andreas Grech
I am starting this question to try and make a central point developers can use to choose what Source Code License to use for their projects.
What I am looking for out of this question are the following for the Licenses:
A short description of the License
What type of projects should this License be used for
Examples of existing projects that use this License
Some of the Licenses that I have in mind are the following:
Apache License 2.0
Artistic License/GPL
Eclipse Public License 1.0
GNU General Public License v2
GNU General Public License v3
GNU Lesser General Public License
MIT License
Mozilla Public License 1.1
New BSD License
