Hello, I would like to place one of my past projects under MIT licence, and I would like to mimic the templates used in coq-community. Is there an easy way to find which of coq-community projects are already using this license?

Hi @Yves Bertot , you can use GitHub's advanced search (https://github.com/search/advanced). You can specify coq-community as the user there and there is a drop-down menu that lets you choose a license kind. Here is an example of your request: https://github.com/search?q=user%3Acoq-community+license%3Amit&type=Repositories&ref=advsearch&l=&l=

For the record, I always try to use the exact words from the SPDX list for a license (both informal name and identifier): https://spdx.org/licenses/

Not all licenses are searchable like this on GitHub, e.g., CECILL-B

I am simply reviving an old development from 2010. I obtained from my co-author the permission to add the MIT license, I wanted to use an existing example to make sure I make it as searchable as possible. However, I don't intend to place under the umbrella of coq-community, because this would imply an engagement to maintain this code very precisely. So I only grabbed a few lines from the meta.yml example I found in coq-community/semantics. You may want to look at the current state of this project which is publicly available on an inria git host.

note that we are taking special care so one can use meta.yml and our templates for non-coq-community projects, example here: https://github.com/uwplse/StructTact

https://gitlab.inria.fr/bertot/delaunayflip does not seem to be publicly available yet though?

my mistake, it should be good now.

@Yves Bertot Could you perhaps rename Make file into _CoqProject to help the tools handle Coq projects in a uniform way?
