Add license

[Sohalt]

It would be nice to know under what license the published material may be reused (if at all).

hi @Sohalt As you can see here all devoxx4kids material should be licenced under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.

Hope that helps,
Stefan

PS: I'm curious what you intend to use it for, though? :-)

Thank you, that's helpful!
Can you maybe add a LICENSE file to the repository nonetheless? This will allow GitHub to show the license directly in their interface making it easier for people finding the project on GitHub.

I'll be giving a workshop on teaching Sonic Pi and am looking for existing material to reference and share. Thanks for your work! It looks really solid.

I looked into it right away when you were pinging me. Unfortunately, there seems to be no easy way in this case. github usually allows you to add a LICENSE file and then choose the the right license but it doesn't support that one. So I looked for the license text that I could just copy paste (e.g. I found this here: https://github.com/matthewmccullough/Creative-Commons-4.0-Markdown/blob/master/licenses/by-nc-sa.markdown) but I am not sure if that would be the right approach as the official page would ask you to just link to the license: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/

So maybe the best way is to just mention it in the Readme or does it make send to just copy the link into the LICENSE.md ?

I think creating a LICENSE file would still be the best way. You can find the license text on the Github run choosealicense.com https://choosealicense.com/licenses/cc-by-sa-4.0/ and the creative commons organization are using it themselves on Github (and Github properly recognizes it): https://github.com/creativecommons/taaccct

Ok, great for researching and finding it! I have added the license file.

Thanks for handling this so quickly!
