Hi,
I want to start a review request and the application i packed is published under Beerware [1] which is not listed in Licensing [2].
I'm not sure, if i can do this, because there is no no-warrenty clausel in it.
Would you say Beerware is a good license, or not?
Effectively, this is Copyright only. These sorts of "joke licenses"
probably won't hold up in court, but we probably don't inherit any
serious legal risk from them.
Upstream should be advised to move to some standard permissive license
like the MIT or revised 2-clause BSD license. Without a disclaimer,
there is some legal risk for the developers especially in U.S.
