>Hmm ... you don't have to ask for consent Nobody said you have. >You just slap the license you want to your code and that's it. Nobody said you can't. >It's not some sort of democracy, lol Nobody said it is, lol. I'm answering to what you actually wrote, that those expressing their dislike of a project having a speicific license are "either malicious or non mentally capable enough" what licenses are for. That's a stupid argument putting other people down with a silly strawman. One can be perfecty capable to understand what licenses are for and still think a project made a mistake chosing a specific language, or want it to change to another (and sometimes, like in the examples I gave, the latter works too). | ||
