# The Star And Thank Author License (SATA License)

This is a novel new idea to make license social and fun.

The basic idea is, whenever using a project using SATA license, people shall star/like/+1 that project and thank the author. Just imagine Google stared your project and send you a thank-you letter because they used your project in github!

## How to use

Here is the template of the [Star And Thank Author License](LICENSE-template.txt) sublicensed from [MIT License](http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT). Just copy the template and modify the author and project url section.

You can also customize by sublicensing other licenses such as [GPL](http://opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license).

I've written a blog post about [Star And Thank Author License](LICENSE-template.txt).
