Clarify license?

[astrofrog]

I am interesting in using some of the proof-of-concept code here to write a dataverse importer for another project. Could you clarify under what license the code here is available, or if it is public domain? At the moment, since there is no license file nor statement about public domain, the code cannot be used by other projects (default is basically 'all rights reserved').

@astrofrog I'm glad you're finding this code useful! I assume you mean the Python code, which was written by @pjbull

We use the Apache 2 license for Dataverse itself so I'd probably use that. Let me touch base with @mcrosas about this.

@astrofrog please see the proposal at IQSS/dataverse#2960 (comment) from @bmckinney for creating a Dataverse desktop app.
