Linked Draft Proposal
Allow also GNU License for platform contributions
Summary
Proposed change in terms and conditions of Platform grant contributions to also allow a GNU License:
“I agree to work and publish the source code and its derivatives produced for this grant under an Apache 2.0 license or a GNU license”
Abstract
In the Platform category, right now there is a requirement to check in order to submit a proposal:
“I agree to work and publish the source code and its derivatives produced for this grant under an Apache 2.0 license”
Change proposed to also allow a GNU License:
“I agree to work and publish the source code and its derivatives produced for this grant under an Apache 2.0 license or a GNU license”
… apart from this, I think the DAO could works on its own License, for example, opensource but limited use to projects within the scope of Decentraland. But this would go in a different proposal
Motivation
Allow other open-source licenses and not only Apache 2
