# How to apply a license
|
||||
|
||||
Originally Nextcloud was licensed under the GNU AGPLv3 only. From
|
||||
June, 16 2016 on we switched to "GNU AGPLv3 or any later version" for
|
||||
better long-term maintainability and to make it more secure from a
|
||||
legal point of view.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally Nextcloud doesn't require a CLA (Contributor License
|
||||
Agreement). The copyright belongs to all the individual
|
||||
contributors.
|
||||
|
||||
If you modify an existing file, please keep the existing license header as
|
||||
it is and just add your copyright notice:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
@copyright Copyright (c) <year>, <your name> (<your email address>)
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
If you create a new file please use this license header:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
/**
|
||||
