@milkshakeuk Are you ok with this license? Wanted to confirm with you.

[milkshakeuk]

@Usualdosage, @duaneedwards I am not sure what the legal ramifications of changing the license is.

Do we want to change it? if so are we sure we want MPL2.0 or would we want LGPL2.1 or some other preferred license.

[duaneedwards]

IANAL but according to the following: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/MPL/2.0/Revision-FAQ/#:~:text=Yes%2C%20you%20can%2C%20because%20MPL,from%20MPL%202.0%20Exhibit%20A.

You should be able to change the license to MPL 2.0 from MPL 1.1.

Some further info on the differences between versions:

@Usualdosage your branch needs rebasing from master so that only the one commit pertaining to th license change is included.

Also I think of we are including the new license file inside the repo it can removed from the header of the c# files.

@Usualdosage I have rebased the branch for you if you need to sync locally you can either delete your local branch and check it out again or run the following command line steps.

git checkout add-license-1 if you don't already have the branch checked out
git fetch to ensure your remote tracking branches are up to date.
git reset --hard origin/add-license-1 to ensure your local branch is exactly in line with the remote branch.

all that needs to happen now is either remove the license headers from the C# files or update the license headers to reference MPL2.0 instead.

Rebased. I'll update the license and remove the headers in the next commit.

@Usualdosage are you still working on this?

[dreaminhex]

Yeah sorry, had to take a brief hiatus, but I’m back now.

[milkshakeuk]

@Usualdosage how come this was closed?

[dreaminhex]

New PC, had to regen a GitHub key. Will open a new PR shortly.

[milkshakeuk]

@Usualdosage you know the branch still exists right? you could just check it back out again, shall I re-open this PR?
