Require license_url, add attribution fields (#182) (v2.0-RC)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
v2.0-RC - contains breaking changes:

* license_url "Required"

Make license_url "Required", add attribution fields and add inventory of common data licenses.

* add license_id

SPDX License List

* If the license_id or license_url fields are blank or omitted,

Creative Commons Universal Public Domain Dedication
(added text for 'license_url')

* Update data-licenses.md

update column name and link

* Update data-licenses.md

clarify identifiers and names

* Update data-licenses.md

expand the full names of licenses

* Added "Beta"

Note: I think we should change the markdown style so that there are not extra spaces in the tables. When we change the column widths it makes it harder to do line-by-line comparisons in GitHub.

* formatting updates for "beta"

* formatting - add line break

makes it easier to read

### Common Data Licenses

Below is a table of common licenses under which datasets can be made available. A permissive license will likely permit more apps and developers to ingest GBFS data. No recommendation for any particular license is offered here.

Definitions of terms:
- Requires attribution: Data users must give credit (attribution) to the data publisher and provide a link to the license.
- Share-alike (viral): Derivative works (remixed, transformed, or built upon the material) must be distributed under the same license as the original.
