boklm pushed to branch main at The Tor Project / Applications / RBM Commits: b7a79f43 by Micah Anderson at 2026-10-22T10:57:03-04:00 Relicense under BSD-3-Clause GitLab's Open Source Program requires an OSI-approved license, and CC0 isn't one. Tor Project policy is to use the 3-clause BSD license, so replace COPYING with a BSD-3-Clause LICENSE and update the license page of the documentation to match. - - - - - 4 changed files: - − COPYING - + LICENSE - doc/index.asc - doc/license.asc Changes: ===================================== COPYING deleted ===================================== @@ -1,121 +0,0 @@ -Creative Commons Legal Code - -CC0 1.0 Universal - - CREATIVE COMMONS CORPORATION IS NOT A LAW FIRM AND DOES NOT PROVIDE - LEGAL SERVICES.
