Tagify: License clarification

Created on 6 Oct 2019  路  3Comments  路  Source: yairEO/tagify

I was going to use this (great) library in a SaaS, however I have noticed that the license in not very transparent.

The _AGPL_ license implies that if we use this library in a SaaS, we must make all the SaaS code publicly available (which is crazy). I am sure that this is not your intent (https://github.com/yairEO/tagify/issues/153#issuecomment-450974982), however that license makes it impossible to use this library legally in any SaaS.

Suggestion

Ok then, I am contemplating on this and will let you know this week.
I might change the license to freeware

@yairEO Thanks for the permissive license! :)
Just a suggestion: if you want to grant a very permissive license, but make sure that your attribution is kept in the source code, you can use the MIT license, which is widespread in open source.

Thanks. I've changed it now to MIT because I admit that I do love credit.. what can I say, I've worked hard on this component for 2 years now and I am really proud of it.
