Why we changed the license to CC BY-NC-ND 4.0

[ghost]

At first, this project used the CC BY-SA license to better disseminate the concept of the project documents, and the most important purpose is the promotion of free software. But we regret to see that this part of the content has been deliberately deleted from some derivative documents(such as https://arch.icekylin.online), and the promotion of free software is defined as "overly ideologically focused" and "not focused on practicality". This is completely unacceptable to the project team, which is completely contrary to the original intention of the project. From this we changed the license to CC BY-NC-ND.

（如果是原来允许派生的情况下）可不可以附加条款之类的，比如不准许派生者删除某些部分（在派生的时候）。

@rubyKC I am not a license expert, as far as I know, there is no such cc license. If anyone knows that this can be done, please let me know.

In the Chinese community, disrespect for the CC license often occurs, and this is already the norm. There is nothing we can do, except to post these websites URL that does not respect the CC license here.

Also, in the exclusive/code part, downstream, deliberately deleted the description that Microsoft's vs code binary package is actually proprietary software, and we regret this deeply...

In the future, if we advocate free software concepts in documents, we should always use CC BY-NC-ND to avoid such malicious modifications.
