LICENCES

This is a permit from an authority to own or use something, do a particular thing, or carry on a trade. i like the idea of the project spreading as much as possible and giving credit to orginal creator would be much appreciable, from that i analyzed different licenses for hardware and for software part

Choosing a Licence

After I read a bit about the differents licenses, i had to cross check between the MIT licence and the Non-Exclusive Licence

A Non-Exclusive Licence

grants to the licensee the right to use the intellectual property, but means that the licensor remains free to exploit the same intellectual property and to allow any number of other licensees to also exploit the same intellectual property.A licence can also take a middle-ground between exclusive and non-exclusive. Such a licence is sometimes known as a "co-exclusive" licence and is one in which the licensor grants a licence to more than one licensee, but agrees that it will only grant licences to a limited group of other licensees. The group of licensees may be identified by name, description (a licence will only be granted to licensees who meet certain criteria), or simply by number (a limited number of licenses will be granted by the licensor).

The MIT licence

This is a very permessive license, which only require the preservation of copyright. My project needs more development so I would keep this project open to those who are interested in improving it. A detailed description of this license can be found Here

I've decided to use the MIT licence for my final project since it is very permessive it provides room for additions and modifications. Here
