The original impetus for making a change here was a typo in --add-header causing the script to fail. However, upon inspection, I was alarmed that we were making a --recursive upload to the *root directory* of ziglang.org. This could result in garbage files being uploaded to the website, or important files being overwritten. As I addressed this concern, I decided to take on file compression as well. Removed compression prior to sending to S3. I am vetoing pre-compressing objects for the following reasons: * It prevents clients from working which do not support gzip encoding. * It breaks a premise that objects on S3 are stored 1-to-1 with what is on disk. * It prevents Cloudflare from using a more efficient encoding, such as brotli, which they have started doing recently. These systems such as Cloudflare or Fastly already do compression on the fly, and we should interop with these systems instead of fighting them. Cloudfront has an arbitrary limit of 9.5 MiB for auto-compression. I looked and did not see a way to increase this limit. The data.js file is currently 16 MiB. In order to fix this problem, we need to do one of the following things: * Reduce the size of data.js to less than 9.5 MiB. * Figure out how to adjust the Cloudfront settings to increase the max size for auto-compressed objects. * Migrate to Fastly. Fastly appears to not have this limitation. Note that we already plan to migrate to Fastly for the website. |

The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
