Fixes#490 which was concerned that the additional resources list did not include all like items, I understand driven by concern that the SPDX license list includes non-open licenses. So does the FSF license list -- worse, it even recommends some.
This fix focuses the list on resources about choosing an open license, not resources listing a bunch of licenses. Fortunately both OSI and FSF have pages directly addressing choosing a license.
I've removed the SPDX and English Wikipedia lists.
It may be relevant to add a link to SPDX as even though SPDX is referenced is many other places in the repo, it does not show up in the about.md.
That would a nice addition! (disclaimer: I am on of the SPDX co-founders)
- add FSF list
- slight rewording, eg OSI list not exactly comprehensive
- add Cowan wizard
- rm TLDRLegal; can't seem to keep junk/spam additions off its home page
Remove "If you have questions or issues, it is always best to consult
a legal professional."
It's not always best, especially considering it's costly and for
most finding one knowledgable about open source licensing will be
difficult.
If it were always best, the site should consist of
<h1>Consult a legal professional.</h1>
But seriously, claiming one should consult a legal professional is
no way to make choosing an open source license non-scary.
* Move licenses to license template
* Move home / about to page template
* Move annotations to config file, included via annotations.js
* Move license metadata to YML Front matter
* Automate the presentation of license metadata
* Move sidebar to include
* Add _site to gitignore
