Hi All, Item 9 (of my todo) says:
9. It looks like users can use free text fields when specifying a license type - like I can add '007 Licensed to kill' as a license type if I wish; let's make this a drop down list of pre-determined license types (with a generic 'other' where they can then link to a license URI if they wish) How should we proceed, I think we should come up with a list of license types to put into the db that can selected via drop down list rather than free typed. We can also have a generic 'other' as a choice and allow them to link to the license text if they wish. The main aim here is to clean up the db and have structured entries - we can then also link to the (known) license itself as a bonus. Example, I noted 25+ different ways folks used when specifying the ASL V2.0 license. This is ugly and I don't like it, my itch sure but I do seek the opinion of others here if it is a good thing to do. Thanks Gav...
