About licensing

[aicooole]

Sorry for filling your issues, but I have a question about the license.

I found the following difference about it.

On README.md(https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/blob/master/README.md), it says that this lisence is MIT "and" GPL license.
But on the other hand, your original document(http://tablesorter.com/docs/) says that this lisence is MIT "or" GPL license(just pick!)

I'm wondering which one is correct.
I would appreciate if you could answer my question.

• In additional, I found a mistake on README.md .
  Original examples and docs URL is wrong(http, not https).

Hey there @aicooole,

First of all you got the wrong website, this here is Motties fork, the docs are located here: https://mottie.github.io/tablesorter/docs/

And both state that it is a Dual-Licence, which normally means you can choose the licence you want to use.

I would be curious how to and two licences, Is only stuff allowed that both licences allow? That sounds not really permissive 😉

But I'm an outsider like you, maybe @Mottie can clear this up and make documentation consistent.

Hi @aicooole!

Thanks for pointing out the link issues. I copied the license from the original tablesorter, but I might have messed up the wording... and and or, they're pretty much the same right? LOL. Well, it is supposed to be or. You pick the license you want to use.

@Kostronor I don't think you can and two licenses, unless part of the code is copied from another project, or something.

Hi @Mottie
Thank you for answering my question.
I'm relieved to hear that my understanding is right.(I mean I can pick the license).

@Kostronor
I also appreciate your advice, thanks.
