MIT Licence doesn't suit OS Development
Created by: anon8000
Here the Redox Founder says he doesn't care about Licence: https://youtu.be/eH5JgMlNE8o?t=2681 While he does make other nonsense comments about Free Software Projects and why he thinks they are in a bad shape and such, he obviously has no Idea or is "paid" to not care.
That's a very bad move. Nobody in their right mind will join a OS Project after all what People have seen happening in with Free Software and everything surrounding it, unless they are to young to know or are misinformed.
I suggest changing to GPL3. It's litterally a Licence made for OS Development. GPL Version 3 Background to Adoption: https://www.fsf.org/news/gpl3.html A Quick Guide: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/quick-guide-gplv3.en.html
Here are some Videos about Free Software you have to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3uX5XwdN_8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POexV1k62_Y
That said, even if your one and only purpose for this Project is to advertise the Rust Language it's still a very bad move with the MIT Licence. Those who know how things go won't ever invest development time into this because they'd be just wasting it. I myself would start learning the Rust Language if Redox had a GPL3 complete Licence. At the moment it's basically the only interessting Project that uses that Language but it just doesn't make sense learning it for something that's broken because of licensing.
