So far, the closest thing to your "PostcardWare" License that I have found is this:
The Educational Community License http://www.opensource.org/licenses/ecl1.php It grants all the same rights that your license does, and has a provision to prevent confusion between derivative works and the original (i.e. modified versions cannot be claimed to be the original). The only thing missing is the postcard condition :) -dZ. >------- Original Message ------- >From : Francois PIETTE[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent : 10/8/2007 2:59:47 PM >To : twsocket@elists.org >Cc : >Subject : RE: [twsocket] ICS on SourceForge, which license is best ? > >I would like to have your opinion about which license I should select at SourceForge ( http://www.opensource.org/licenses/category ). I have not much time to read all possible licenses. You all know the current license displayed in each source file (see below for reminder). I would like to stay as close as possible to this simple license. Basically, I want to preserve my intellectual property while granting anyone to use and redistribute ICS source code, including in commercial applications and royalty free.
