I am wondering how I should act in the following scenario:\r\n- I want to make a web application based on PSK as a starting point (as intented)\r\n- I want to publish that work\r\n- I want to license it\r\n  - With either no license (Copyright by ...) or\r\n  - With a specified license\r\n\r\nHow can one distinguish between the code authored \"by the Polymer authors\" and the adjustments I made? Do I need to remove or modify the file headers / am I even allowed to? How do I go about new files? Do I need to think about license compatibility?\r\n\r\nPoke @addyosmani"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/PolymerElements/polymer-starter-kit/issues/comments/122116076","html_url":"https://github.com/PolymerElements/polymer-starter-kit/issues/227#issuecomment-122116076","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/PolymerElements/polymer-starter-kit/issues/227","id":122116076,"user":{"login":"Download","id":153391,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/153391?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download","html_url":"https://github.com/Download","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Download/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-07-16T21:58:35Z","updated_at":"2015-07-16T21:58:35Z","body":"Actually, I think BSD license allows redistibution under different license as well?\r\n\r\nAsking people to keep the license headers of the Starter Kit intact forever sounds unreasonable to me..."}}
