I approve of the sentiment, but it seems to me that the unlicense is most definitely a LICENSE. Putting legal terms and conditions, or waiver of same, into a differently named file, seems a step too far.

Nevertheless, sounds cool to me, I'll read up and consider using it. Thanks!

            I've seen it done in a special "coding style test suite"
            (that gets run along with all the other tests).  Slightly
            nicer than a push hook IMO because you see it earlier and
            because it works the same way as all your other automated
            tests of your code.  There was a bit of special code so
            that you got one failure per coding style violation I
            think (including one per missing copyright statement), but
            those are bonus points.

            Maybe somebody has written a test runner plugin that does
            that? My quick searches didn't turn one up, though there
            is this, which could easily be adapted (not a plugin, and
            looks like it wants to be)

        I don't think it should be a test runner plugin, so much as
        just a test. Maybe a big common utility function (in a pypi
        package) which a tiny custom test function can then call to
        parametrize it for your project.


    That works.  The reason I suggested a plugin was so that plugin
    hooks can give the coding style check function the modules (and
    scripts) on which to operate.
