Please use the "+" at the end of the license URI (like: CNPL-NAv7+) to allow future license revisions to apply.

These licenses are based off of the CSL (Cooperative Software License) which is not actually just for software.

Contributing:

  • Only make or propose edits to the license text in template.xml
  • Changes that are not common among license have some special formatting requirements. Check the output of make to ensure everything is removed from the licenses it does not apply to.
    • If a change only applies to the CNPL or CNPL-NA use the "restriction-cooperative" role attribute
    • If a change only applies to the CNPL or NPL (or in other words, it has to do with requiring attributions) use the "restriction-attribution" role attribute.
  • When in doubt, make a bug report and I will be glad to help!
