Are licensing questions off-topic?

Question

There have been a couple questions asked about licensing, with mixed responses (some were closed, others were answered).

Examples:

• Blender use as world editor, level editor..etc, License problem?

• Must I add a license block to all files in a multi file addon?

• Can I use images rendered with blender for commercial use?

Are these off-topic or not?

If not, should we resurrect the license tag?

Answer 1

Yes, they are, due to the legal risk they can pose to both the Stack Exchange Network,and the community members. There is a reason why legal consultants get paid as much as they do, they cant afford to make errors.
