@leftpaddotpy I'm a little (pleasantly) surprised to discover that both #Lix and #CppNix are licensed with #LGPL. I guess I got the idea that it was #MITlicence since that's what #NixOS uses.

Any help from #opensource #licensing folk would be appreciated,
1. Original code is under BSD 3 clause
2. I will include some code with us under MIT License
3. I will be adding/modifying some more code.
What is the best way to handle this situation? I am happy to put out the code in whatever licenses suits it. #bsdlicense #MITlicence -
@1337core I wouldn't use the #MIT #licence because it explicitly excludes any warranty without any constraints.
Assuming that #software licences are legally general terms and conditions, denying any warranty might, for example, violate § 309 (7) and (8) 🇩🇪 civil #code.
And since the #MITlicence does not contain a severability clause, the #license might be invalid in whole according to § 139 🇩🇪 civil code.
