Publish color theme with MIT license #48
Comments
I'd also like to see darcula upstreamed to https://github.com/chriskempson/base16-shell |
The owner of this project would be the final say (and/or a lawyer), but I don't really think you need a different licensing to create a "derivative" work consisting only of the colors. The apache license is very "permissive"... what exactly do you think you need an MIT license for that the apache license does not cover? |
Last time I checked, I did not come to a conclusion, if color schemes can be copyrighted.
https://github.com/chriskempson/base16-templates-source/blob/master/README.md I'm not really great with licences, but I think Apache-2 is less permissive than MIT. |
Anyway... good luck. I was just hoping to help bring you to some resolution for your own project since I doubt that the owner of this project will likely concern himself with making changes to your project. Just my two cents. |
Dear Konstantin,
I created a base16 colour scheme of this theme (see here) and would like to add it to the official list. Unfortunately I can only submit it if the license is at least as permissive as MIT.
My question: Is it okay if I publish just the color scheme and its name with MIT license.
Regards
Matthias
