Description

What license is the binarized G-code specification released under?

The license of this project is AGPL but that isn't very suitable for a standard, especially not a standard that wants to achieve wide adoption.

Something like the CC0 + OWFa that Mozilla suggest, or a similar other alternative, would be preferable.

Start with doc/specifications.md and review the licensing question alongside the linked CC0, OWFa, and Mozilla guidance. Done would require a project decision and a clearly recorded license for the specification, but the issue provides no settled choice or implementation steps.
