It's really a simple request; it would make things immediately clear about what one can do with code. I'd like to modify cbhistory, for example, to create a permanent, searchable log of the CB, but I have to wait for an answer to see what the code license is.1 If the CC submission page had an obligatory license field, then people wishing to use future submissions wouldn't have this problem.

1: I've since learned (thanks, dbwiz) that such logging activities are considered unethical. Ergo my example is moot, but the point still stands.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
