About docs repo lic

pingcap docs repo: GitHub - pingcap/docs: TiDB database documentation.

use lic: CC BY-SA 3.0.

that’s old version, the last is 4.0,

my question is what;s the diff between 3.0 and 4.0, is that necessary to upgrade to 4.0 for docs repo?

Hi Shawn, thanks for your feedback! You can see the difference between 3.0 & 4.0 in the license feature comparison table: License Versions - Creative Commons Currently, we don’t see the need for changing the license from 3.0 to 4.0, so we’d like to keep it as 3.0. If you have special reasons or requests for 4.0, please let us know and we’ll reconsider it.

thanks, I’m fine,
but just saw this in licenses web site.

we strongly recommend the use of the 4.0 license instead

Love the response I’ve been here for awhile just now becoming more social
