I couldn't see the license of this repo; if you have released this work with one, can you make it more clear in the REAME or adding a LICENSE file?

Otherwise it would be good if you decide for one, whichever you want open source or not, and make it clearly visible.

This is important. Don't want to report and engage with issues and/or try to fix them without a license. Open source? Beta before commercial? ...

Well, I haven't decided. It's possible that when Craft 3 comes out, I will sell it in the Craft Store. Suggestions for a license to use with that possibility in mind?

I don't really consider it "beta" because I use it on production sites myself.

I am not sure the right model to go from an open source license to commercial.

I guess this means that we will just report issues for you to fix in the meantime if we want to give this plugin a go.

Thanks for the quick reply and transparency.

No problem. Still a chance it'll be OSS; I just want to leave the options open.

I'm not an expert on this kind of mix and match licenses, but I guess that you can release it for non-commercial and if somebody want to use commercial then pay whatever you estimate.

Just to clarify: the version for Craft 2.4 & 2.5 will always be free. But I do want to retain ownership/copyright on it in the event that I do decide to make it a paid plugin for Craft 3.

It'll need to be somewhat rewritten then anyway, and with the advent of the Craft Store, I think I'm not alone in this. I think we are at least a year off from that tho, probably more.

I added the MIT license to my other github repos via LICENSE.txt files. Thanks for the heads up!

I added a LICENSE.txt to the 1.0.5 release to clarify things.
