Hi Because many Vim Plugins/Scripts use "same as Vim" License. And lots of Vim plugin manager supports install Vim plugin from GitHub. I think it will be great if GitHub can recognize Vim License[1]. And I am working on this now. While working on this. I realized that Vim License text have many content directly related to Vim, such as project name, maintainer, URLs.
So, if I as a Vim Plugin author. Want to use Vim License and create a License file in code base. I should update these contents to reflect my project. I created a modified sample online[2]. My question is: Is this modified License still Vim License? (only modify project name, URL/maintainer name, email) Or any modification is not allowed if I want to call it "Vim License". I know some project modify the content and rename the license, ex: tagbar[3] [1]:https://help.github.com/en/articles/licensing-a-repository [2]:https://github.com/othree/vim-license/blob/master/LICENSE [3]:https://github.com/majutsushi/tagbar/blob/master/LICENSE -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
