A permalink for your MIT License
I always forget to add an MIT-license.txt file to my projects, so I wanted to link to a single resource that would always be up to date and would always have my details online.
But why keep this to myself, so it's on github for your fork and pulling pleasure.
Now I can always include http://rem.mit-license.org in all my projects
which links rem (the cname) against my copyright holder name Remy Sharp - all stored in the users directory.
Example
The users directory contains a list of files, each representing a host
on mit-license.org. As present the file format is very simple, but can
be upgraded in future.
Create a new file and give it the name of the CNAME you want (in my case
it's rem.json). This file contains a JSON object containing at least a
copyright property:
{
"copyright": "Remy Sharp, http://remysharp.com"
}
Means I can now link to: http://rem.mit-license.org and it will show my license name (note that the date will always show the current year).
