Description

In https://github.com/purescript/registry/pull/76#discussion_r495607360 we figured that we probably want to be able to remove "malicious code" from the registry. We also figured that NPM has already a policy on this that we might want to adopt, together with other legal policies

So we should:

  • read through these policies
  • port inside this repo (e.g. in a legal folder) the policies we like
  • patch the README to point to the legal documents where relevant

Start by reading the linked NPM acceptable-content and policy pages, then inspect the repository README. Identify the policies to adopt, add them under a legal folder, and update the README with links to the relevant legal documents.
