Hey Arlet,

What is the license for this core?

Even though I'm using this for hobby purposes it would be nice to know for certain what terms you are sharing this under. I see other projects under BSD-2 such as https://github.com/Arlet/cpld-6502.

have fun.

yes!

update: I finally realized there is a minimal blurb at the top of cpu.v, so this is what I'm taking as the license. I didn't notice at first because it blended in with the copyright header. (oops!)

Feel free to use this code in any project (commercial or not), as long as you
keep this message, and the copyright notice. This code is provided "as is",
without any warranties of any kind.

This seems roughly equivalent to BSD-2 or MIT with a lot less words, but unfortunately also less legally precise. I know this is an older project, but would you consider adding a LICENSE.md using a more traditional open-source license of your choosing? It would certainly have helped me find/notice it sooner if nothing else.

I very much appreciate that you put this project out there and for allowing people to use it.
