I'm trying to pick a license for my XSPF -> JSON Javascript parser.
I'm having trouble understanding the impact of GPL-style (share-alike)
licenses for Javascript. The parser will be useless unless commercial
sites can include it in their codebase without repercussions. It's
hard to know whether using Javascript on your site is more like
linking to a library, or including the library's code in your program.
For that reason, I'm considering going with the MIT license.
I'd also like to host the project with xspf.org, so I'm open to
suggestions about picking a license that works for integration into
the project.
