When removing these comments i noticed that some of the classes (especially Tye2.Test.Infrastructure/xunit the ones under like this one

tye2/test/Tye2.Test.Infrastructure/xunit/ConditionalTheoryAttribute.cs

Line 2 in 8b04066

// Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0. See License.txt in the project root for license information.using System;

) are licenced under Apache2.0

I think we need to change the projects licence to Apache2.0 from MIT

I found this about what happeds in mixed licence scenarios : https://dwheeler.com/essays/floss-license-slide.html

It seems the original tye project was mis-licenced: was setup as MIT but had Apache2.0 parts in it => it should have been Apache2.0 as it takes precedence as the more limiting licence type of the two

What do you think?

I would rewrite apache parts to have MIT. MIT is simpler and more permissive, with fewer conditions to follow. I think we can do that?

This doesn't have such license. To be honest I wouldn't bother.

i don't think you can do that (change the licence)

for apache the comments have to remain it seems https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_License#Licensing_conditions

one can add to them if one modifies the file

[drakon660]

Yes you can.

[razvangoga]

i think here by the software then understand the entire project

so we can keep the prj as MIT and the Apache2 files remain as they are now (with the comment)

correct?

of course, the issue was related to .net foundation information removal.
