Simply writing \"MIT License\" is not notice enough; nor is pointing to another file in the *.zip file, since a potential infringer willing to do the legal thing may read an installed *.css file outside of a *.zip file, something you encourage because *.css files are normally to be installed into websites without any other files from this particular *.zip file. I'm not a lawyer, so feel free to ask one, but right now an infringer would have the defense of innocent infringement, still illegal but with less of a cost to the infringer. Since you have reserved an obligation in the license, you evidently don't want your work released into the public domain."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/issues/comments/80714645","html_url":"https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/issues/1655#issuecomment-80714645","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/issues/1655","id":80714645,"user":{"login":"Nick-Levinson","id":10383950,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/10383950?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson","html_url":"https://github.com/Nick-Levinson","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Nick-Levinson/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-03-14T20:43:13Z","updated_at":"2015-03-14T20:43:13Z","body":"I agree on a consultation as being appropriate and that would be by someone from H5BP, which I'm not. And, no, that was not their view as reported in the linked-to pages, except that I couldn't play the video (I refuse to install Flash since it causes a security issue), so maybe it was in that. However, the recent written comments mainly discussed the license. I opened this discussion to be about the copyright notice. Very different. Possibly, some people are from elsewhere than the U.S. and are unaware of innocent infringement as an issue that can lower the benefit to your contributors if copyright notice is not posted in the documents that are meant by H5BP's encouragement to be separately used, namely the *.css files. And minifying should be selective, so as not to strip out a copyright notice."}}
