What

Relicenses this repo from the proprietary grant-only licence to Apache-2.0.

These actions are public and consumed cross-org by full-URL
uses: https://forge.hoist-it.nl/HOIST-IT-Actions/actions/<name>@<tag>. Under
the previous LicenseRef-HOISTIT-Proprietary-1.0 (no use without a signed Grant
Document), the repos that pull these actions had no legal right to run them. A
permissive licence is the correct fit for shared CI glue.

Changes

  • Flipped the SPDX header on all first-party content (README, CODEOWNERS,
    CONTRIBUTING, SECURITY, the six */action.yml) from proprietary to Apache-2.0.
  • Swapped LICENSES/: dropped the now-unused proprietary text, added
    Apache-2.0.txt (canonical SPDX text).
  • Added a root LICENSE.md (full Apache-2.0 text) and its REUSE.toml annotation.
  • CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md keeps its CC-BY-SA-4.0 (Contributor Covenant).

Verification

reuse lint clean: 11/11 files with copyright + licence, 0 missing, 0 unused,
used licences = Apache-2.0, CC-BY-SA-4.0.

Note: open PR #2 (build-push-sign-images) adds a new action with a proprietary
header; whichever lands second needs a one-line rebase to Apache-2.0.

## What Relicenses this repo from the proprietary grant-only licence to **Apache-2.0**. These actions are **public** and consumed cross-org by full-URL `uses: https://forge.hoist-it.nl/HOIST-IT-Actions/actions/<name>@<tag>`. Under the previous `LicenseRef-HOISTIT-Proprietary-1.0` (no use without a signed Grant Document), the repos that pull these actions had no legal right to run them. A permissive licence is the correct fit for shared CI glue. ## Changes - Flipped the SPDX header on all first-party content (README, CODEOWNERS, CONTRIBUTING, SECURITY, the six `*/action.yml`) from proprietary to `Apache-2.0`. - Swapped `LICENSES/`: dropped the now-unused proprietary text, added `Apache-2.0.txt` (canonical SPDX text). - Added a root `LICENSE.md` (full Apache-2.0 text) and its REUSE.toml annotation. - `CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md` keeps its `CC-BY-SA-4.0` (Contributor Covenant). ## Verification `reuse lint` clean: 11/11 files with copyright + licence, 0 missing, 0 unused, used licences = Apache-2.0, CC-BY-SA-4.0. Note: open PR #2 (build-push-sign-images) adds a new action with a proprietary header; whichever lands second needs a one-line rebase to Apache-2.0.
These actions are public and consumed cross-org by full-URL `uses:`, so a
proprietary grant-only licence left the very repos that pull them unable to
use them legally. Relicense all first-party content to Apache-2.0: flip the
SPDX headers, swap the LICENSES/ text, add a root LICENSE.md and update
REUSE.toml. The Contributor Covenant CODE_OF_CONDUCT keeps its CC-BY-SA-4.0.
reuse lint clean (11/11).
