@rhodrykorb Before I give feedback, please confirm that you know how to force push in git so that you can just update this pull request in-place, without filing yet another one. |
@cvrebert Yup! Go for it :) Sorry for the million requests for the one thing. |

Strange that we get "The Travis CI build could not complete due to an error" |
@cvrebert I'll remove the FAQ and fix to "the" |
Okay all that should be fixed now :) |
I'm going to punt on this for v3—given the time frame and what's left to do, there's just no way we can make this happen in time for the final release. I've added it to #9397 to track it for 3.1 if we can make it happen then. Thanks for the efforts, folks. We'll get this wrapped up soon. |
Out of curiosity, what was the justification for choosing MIT over BSD? |
@frewsxcv That was never actually discussed, in truth. But they're basically equivalent anyway. |
@cvrebert For the most part, yes, but I figure most projects would want the 'endorsement clause' |
@frewsxcv I think we are fairly committed to MIT now, given that 84% of all contributors so far have agreed to license under MIT. |
For everyone that does not know the differences of licenses here is a basic comparison. |
