I have open sourced all of Yakumo’s source code under the Apache License v2.0 (ALv2).
Yesterday I went through a list of OSI-approved open source licenses, and found some a little too open (MIT and BSD) and others a little too restrictive (GPL). I found ALv2 to be just the right scope for what I want. Have a read through the licenses if you want to see the difference. It should be pretty clear how different they are from each other. One thing I like about ALv2 is that it enforces the distribution of a “NOTICE” file with the licensed work. Seems to be a fair, reliable and flexible method of attribution.
Apache.org also has a nice guide on how to apply ALv2 to your own project.
