If we need a license on the license page, it should be included before a public release. If not, I'll remove that page from the installer.

This application has made rounds through FIRST legal, but due to the install process (specifically, the downloading and repackaging of the installer, which is fundamental to the Full installer), they cannot endorse this project. Instead, I'll need to accumulate the licenses found in each application I install and present that to the user to accept. NSIS supports this feature and it's not terribly hard to implement, given I can collect the licenses and place them in text files.
Separately, I need to select a license for this application. Note, that at this time, given that no license exists, the software contained within this repository that I wrote is owned by me. According to GitHub, any unlicensed code is "All Rights Reserved" by default. This means that distribution is my prerogative. That means you can't legally fork this repo. However, this poses a problem because this might go against the licenses of the software I'm packaging into the installer. I simply won't know until I can read through them.

Read and include licenses for

  • Java 8
  • Android Studio 2.*
  • Android SDK (Each of the SDK elements: tools, platform-tools, buildtools, platform 19 and 23, and the google usb extras)

And then

  • Come up with a license
