Licensing

Ported from the old Google Doc .

Content from @emkean

Proposed licensing plan

Content type	Licence	Comments
Templates	CC-0	with expectation of attribution/link back to project
Metadocumentation (docs about how to use the docs)	CC-BY 4.0
Code snippets	Apache or MIT	with labeling of license
Tools (software)	Apache or MIT

Templates or tools forked from other projects will keep their licenses or have less-restrictive licenses applied (e.g. we can license our version of a CC-BY-SA template as CC-BY).

We propose NOT to include templates, tools, code snippets, or any other content licensed under any of these restrictive licenses:

• No License
• Unlicense
• WTFPL
• AGPL
• CC BY-NC-* (this restricts commercial entities)
• Private repositories
