You can put s.license = "Proprietary", s.license = "Non-commercial" or something similar if you don't want to use common FOSS license(s). > If the field is not present and "correct", do you believe things similar to > `gem build mygem.gemspec` should refuse to create a .gem? Yes. I think gem build foo.gemspec should refuse to create a gem when both license and licenses are empty. (We might want to check also on gem push, but that's probably not necessary). -- Best Regards / S pozdravom, Pavol RUSNAK SUSE LINUX, s.r.o openSUSE Boosters Team Lihovarska 1060/12 PGP 0xA6917144 19000 Praha 9 prusnak[at]opensuse.org Czech Republic _______________________________________________ RubyGems-Developers mailing list http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems RubyGems-Developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
