28e4765dfe spdx-id required, nickname only for licenses with customary short names 2016-05-24 16:21:13 -05:00
Mike Linksvayer
6fe44f4637 Make nickname a required meta field 
Add missing nicknames
Use SPDX ID if no customary nickname (eg GNU GPLv3) exists

This ensures that a relatively compact name is always available

I may be missing some obvious customary names, e.g., is "Eclipse
1.0" customary? For now I've used the SPDX ID, EPL-1.0.

213c5400bc re-add 'featured' field 
was unused for choosealicense.com display after
https://github.com/github/choosealicense.com/pull/386

but choosealicense.com is vendored into licensee which eventually
is used in GitHub; 'featured' determines what is highlighted in
license drop-down eg at https://github.com/new

7b4160681c Rework descriptions of 7 listed on /licenses 
- primarily functional
- drop self-naming
- minimize requiring significant understanding of other licenses or
  copyright
- should be excruciatingly bland for anyone who already knows the licenses
  well; newcomers shouldn't have to deal with baggage immediately

Probably a few more words should be added to the xGPLv3s about their
stronger patent terms.

Licenses not listed on /licenses could be described in similar style.

8be0e5f8c2 rm patent-use permission field from GPLv2 and LGPLv2.1 metadata 
There's a strong argument they have implied patent licenses, but
this site doesn't annotate any other implied patent licenses, as
one would expect given the description of the patent-use field "This
license provides an express grant of patent rights from the contributor
to the recipient."
