[License-discuss] Open source license chooser choosealicense.com launched.

[Patrice-Emmanuel Schmitz]

This guide ignores a FAQ or category (at least in non English-speaking
countries where local administrations have an obligation to refer to legal
instruments with a working value in their local language).
"The license must have the same working value in English, Bulgarian,
Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek,
Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish,
Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovene, Spanish, Swedish..."
I know Chinese is still missing...
P-E.

>   developers make the decision of which license to use when releasing
>   software.

>   The site itself is open source and I'd love any feedback / pull
>   requests you may have. To make the process even easier, there's also
>   now a license picker when creating a new repository on GitHub.com
>   which will automatically add the license to the project.
