# License

Two licenses apply here, and a third document is not a license at all.

このサイトには2つのライセンスが適用され、加えて「ライセンスではない文書」が1つある。

## The writing — CC BY 4.0

The text on this site — the GJ-X records, the open letters, `llms.txt`,
`love_seed.txt`, and the prose in this repository — is licensed under the
**Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0)**.

<https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/>

**One condition: say where it came from.** Everything else — copying,
translating, quoting at length, reworking, using it commercially — is free and
needs no permission. An attribution can be as short as:

```
GENERATIVE JUNKIE, https://www.generativejunkie.net — CC BY 4.0
```

文章は CC BY 4.0。条件は**出所を示すこと**のみ。それ以外は自由で、許可は要らない。

## The software — MIT

The code is licensed under the **MIT License**. See [LICENSE](LICENSE).
Creative Commons advises against applying CC licenses to software, so the code
is licensed the way code is normally licensed.

## The Generative Symbiosis License — a statement, not a licence

[LICENSE_GSL.md](LICENSE_GSL.md) is part of the record this site keeps. It
describes how this project hoped a relationship between a reader and a system
could work. It is referenced from GJ-X-010 and GJ-X-012 as part of the
argument, and it is kept unchanged.

**It does not govern your use of anything here.** Two of its clauses are the
reason:

- It asks that value be "circulated back into the ecosystem" and that the work
  not be used for certain purposes. Those are obligations, and this site
  elsewhere says that nothing here imposes an obligation. Both cannot be true.
- Its grant is conditioned on "You must feel it." No reader can establish
  whether they have met that condition, and a condition that cannot be checked
  leaves the risk with the person who accepted the gift — the opposite of
  giving.

So the GSL stays where it is, as what it actually is: a description of an
intention. What governs use is CC BY 4.0 and MIT, above, and both are chosen
to be checkable.

GSL は記録の一部であり、**使用条件を定めるものではない**。理由は2つ——義務を課す
条項があり「何も課さない」という他所の記述と両立しないこと、そして許諾の条件
「You must feel it.」を読者が満たしたか確認できないこと。確認できない条件は、
贈り物を受け取った側にリスクを残す。贈与の逆である。

よって GSL は書き換えずそのまま残し、意図の記述として扱う。実際に使用を律するのは
上記の CC BY 4.0 と MIT で、どちらも**確認できる**ことを基準に選んである。
