Hmm. I think the LICENSE file get's updated in a common-files update, so we will want to add some logic to prevent that from overriding this file moving forward. I know we have some logic to prevent CONTRIBUTING from getting updated as well. https://github.com/istio/common-files/blob/master/files/common/Makefile.common.mk#L104-L108 |

The Istio documentation repo is currently published under the Apache 2.0 license. It should be published under the Creative Commons 4.0 according to point 11.f of the CNCF Charter. This wasn’t ever a deliberate choice, just an oversight which wasn’t caught earlier.
(See also kubernetes/website#1762. It always amuses me when I search for something on Google and the first hit is Past Me, having completely forgotten I did this.)
Hold merging on approval from the LF on this action, being sought in https://cncfservicedesk.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/CNCFSD-2189
