Hey PJ. First off, I am not a lawyer and this does not constitute legal advice. I think you'll be seeing that sentence a lot :) > - Does this also apply to users who use the website without ever going > near the source. > - Do i need to make the source (of the website) opensource to avail of > the licence. There are 2 things here:1 is the terms of service for the website and the other is the license for the source code, which outlines the conditions for distribution and re-use of the code. I can't really advise on what your terms of service should be - have a look at some other similar services to get some ideas. > - Any ideas what is a good licence For the software side of things a simple solution is the a permissive license like the MIT one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_License
It basically says that anyone can do whatever they like with the software (including selling it) but you're not going to take any responsibility for damages etc caused by it. There is quite a good review of various licenses at wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source_licenses all the best Karl --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Ireland" group.
