What this means for you
If you use these prompts for your own learning and practice, nothing changes. Use them, adapt them, share them with your team or community — with attribution and share-alike. The plain-English guide is in LICENSING.md.
Any commercial use requires expressed written permission from Dean Peters — selling the library or adaptations of it, bundling it into paid products or services, using it as material for paid training or consulting deliverables. Wanting to do commercial work isn't a problem; it just starts with a conversation. Open an issue and ask.
Also in this release
- All 108 assets migrated to the canonical CC licensing line (15 gained a Licensing field for the first time)
- Provenance corrected: the MITRE Innovation Toolkit tools referenced here (painstorming, problem framing, premortem, stakeholder mapping) were created by Dean Peters and adopted into the ITK — the attributions now say so
- The validator now blocks any MIT reference repo-wide, so the old license can't creep back in
The fine print
Copies obtained under MIT (pre-v2.3.0) remain governed by MIT — that grant is irrevocable for what was already distributed. This repository and all versions from v2.3.0 forward are CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.
