08d8173bd8 Merge pull request #456 from github/unhidden-criteria 
hidden: false for 'popular' licenses
 2016-09-26 13:34:07 -07:00
Mike Linksvayer
570f69e4ec hidden: false for 'popular' licenses 
- document criteria for whether a license is hidden
  - needed for license spectrum on /licenses OR
  - on 'popular' list at https://opensource.org/licenses (some other list could be used in the future)
- adjust license properties and tests accordingly

This gets non-hidden list back close to what it was before #386 and (pending licensee vendoring this change, licensee release, and github.com licensee dependency version bump) some commonly requested licenses (eg #413 #449) will reappear in the github.com license drop-down.

8de49ac800 alignment with other records 
* same-license is not a limitation and doesn't apply in any way to BSL-1.0
* other licenses with a per-file notice recommendation get that added to the note field
* have the description mention the reason for this license existing, binary distribution without notices (IIUC)
* remove using: pending an example that can be followed by others and detected eg on GitHub, see https://github.com/github/choosealicense.com/blob/gh-pages/README.md#optional-fields and see #358 #372 #377

0cee43e3c5 Update no-license 
- qualify "no [actions]" with "without being at risk..."
- mention exceptions and limitations, jurisdiction-specific
- mention that collaborators don't give you permission, either
- remove trivial example copyright notice, suggest adding statement symmetric with for-users section below
- suggest exploring contributor agreement so non-licensor has permission from contributors
