At the technical level, you can change the license file like any other file. Whether you have the legal right to change the license is a very different question. And as matter of opinion: If it's someone else's code and the license allows you to relicense (some open source licenses do, some don't) changing it to a not open source one is still very rude. |

Hey,
I have question about licensing my repository.
I would like to know if it is possible to change the licence of my repo, after having a licence (currently Apache 2.0).
Also, I would like to create my own licence, is that possible ? It would still be an "open-source friendly" licence (of course), but with some more specifications and a few more restrictions.
Thanks for your answers :)
Best,
therealmarius
