Friendly PSA: If you release code, you need to license it

Generally speaking, default copyright laws apply to unlicensed code. All rights to your source code are retained by you and no one else may reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from your work. That's probably not what you want.

 

Please, take a moment to license your work so others may benefit from your contributions.

well said. this is a pervasive problem not only here but on github etc

 

Start a campaign to sort unraid community code out... I will join your crusade

and for non-code items such as graphics assets and web layouts etc., you could use Creative Commons.

Any idea how to go about that?

Excellent point. I had completely forgotten about non-code content.

I would suggest that we get some sort of image we can tag in posts saying unlicensed and then rename the threads as well. I really do think it is that important
