One of the best things about SQLite is its license (or maybe I should say lack thereof).

While SQLite extension authors are free to choose whatever license they wish, I wish more would follow the core’s example.

(I realise there are legal doubts about the validity of “public domain” in some jurisdictions - I think ultra-permissive licenses such as 0BSD are effectively equivalent to public domain. Apache is a lot more restrictive than 0BSD.)



If only we had a license to make them do that (jk).

I do actually like the sqlite blessing. It is really wholesome.
