<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi,<br><br></div>Is there a short permissive OSI approved license that doesn't require attribution? <br><br>The popular permissive open source licenses like MIT and BSD require attribution. It would be good to have a license where that is not required. There are many of us who are happy with attribution but don't want to legally enforce it. Here is an example of a popular library using public domain dedication with a fallback license: <br><br><a href="https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/master/stb_vorbis.c">https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/master/stb_vorbis.c</a><br><br></div>I propose a public domain dedication with a BSD-style fallback without the attribution requirement:<br><div><div><br>"This software is in the public domain. Where that dedication is not<br>recognized, redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with <br>or without modification, are permitted. No warranty for any purpose <br>is expressed or implied."<br clear="all"><div><div><div><br></div><div>Is the public domain dedication redundant? Will it suffice to just say "redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without modification, are permitted" ?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks, <br></div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">Sagar<br></div></div>
