Github an licensing
Dear All On irc rlb pointed me to https://joeyh.name/blog/entry/removing_everything_from_github/ IANAL so I don't know whether it is a real problem, a hypothetical problem or not a problem. My guess is that it can't affect the main notmuch license as the bulk of notmuch's copyright is owned by people not responsible for the github mirror (*), but it might mean that those of us responsible for the mirror are illegally posting notmuch's code. Does anyone have any views on this, and whether we should carry on maintaining the github mirror?
