Hi The TW core is BSD licensed [1], with which you can do allmost everything. Especially important, if you want to sell it, or your content. CC BY-SA 3.0 [2]
copied from [2] === This license lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work even for commercial purposes, as long as they credit you and license their new creations under the identical terms. This license is often compared to “copyleft” free and open source software licenses. All new works based on yours will carry the same license, so any derivatives will also allow commercial use. This is the license used by Wikipedia, and is recommended for materials that would benefit from incorporating content from Wikipedia and similarly licensed projects. === Which means, if you change the tiddlytools plugins, you need to use the same license, for the changed plugins. Your own (Hyperfiction) work can have your own license. Whatever you'll use. ==== Be aware, that every TW plugin can have its own license! See the PluginManager at the backstage area. and [3] Waiver — Any of the above conditions can be waived if you get permission from the copyright holder. So. Nothing is fixed. Just ask :) If your hyperfiction content has a different license, there should be an easy to find and clear statement about it. ==== At: http://creativecommons.org/choose/ there is a "license" builder. You can play with it, and see how it changes rights. (click the links, that are created) Also the FAQ [4] has a lot of information ==== I think, there is only one problem, if you want to sell your work and one of the used plugins have some "no commercial" restrictions. Since TW is only one file, you can't clearly identify, which parts of the file you are selling. So, if something isn't clear, I'd allways ask the author (for a special permission). @Eric :) have fun! mario [1] template: http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license [2] see: The Licenses - allmost at the bottom: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/ [3] see: Waiver: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ [4] http://wiki.creativecommons.org/FAQ On Jan 7, 7:59 am, "H.
