I like the MIT License because it's simple and ubiquitous. However, it does mean that anyone's free to use/modify our software. Justification: -------------- I think this is a good thing given that our goal is greater awareness of a major social/political problem. If someone wants to clone our repo and make a new frontend with a different focus, that spreads the message further. The MIT license also makes it clear that derivatives don't necessarily have our blessing. Alternatives: ------------- However, if we're concerned with controlling what our (or Thursday Network) is associated with or for some other reason don't want to share code, we could use something else.

Do not merge! This is a WIP pull request so that you all can see what I'm up to. I'll remove the WIP and request a review when it's ready.
