Thank you so much for this license change!! May I suggest using one of the following licenses instead of "public domain" just to make sure it's clearly public domain, and so automated tools can reliably pick up the change? |
|
@douglascrockford In case the above comment is of interest to you. |
|
I would also like to support using a more common public domain license like CC0 |

Some countries, for example Japan, have no definition of Public Domain in law. |

The original author of the application, Douglas Crockford, selected the license. Please reach out to him if you would like to see any changes. |
The JSON license was included for the `org.json` transitive dependency, but that [no longer uses this license](stleary/JSON-java#688). Changes: - Removed support for this license (so that the build will fail if re-introduced) - Removed license text from `thirdparty-template` Fixes hazelcast#25343
