docs: rebrand the repository documentation, templates and dashboards
README, README_ZH, SECURITY, COMPLIANCE, CONTRIBUTING, NOTICE, code_of_conduct, the vulnerability and PR-etiquette documents, the GitHub issue and pull request templates, and the docs/ tree all present Silo as the product. The Grafana dashboards under docs/metrics/prometheus/grafana/ have their panel titles and descriptions rebranded while every minio_* query, label and expression is left alone, so existing alerts and recording rules keep matching. The distinction the review demanded is applied per hit rather than by search-and-replace: - Product and command text becomes Silo and silo: install and run instructions, systemd examples, compose services, download links, badges. - Protocol and interface text keeps MinIO: MINIO_* variables, minio_* metrics, x-minio-* headers, /minio/* routes, .minio.sys, arn:minio, and API field and error names. - Attribution keeps MinIO and gains the fork's own: the AGPL obligations, original copyright, CREDITS and NOTICE stay, with the modification notice added alongside rather than replacing them. - Historical and third-party references are left as facts, not rewritten for brand tidiness. README and README_ZH each carry an explicit non-affiliation notice, document the side-by-side package migration including the /etc/systemd/system/silo.service.d/10-legacy-user.conf drop-in for keeping a legacy UID/GID, and state that recursive chown is never performed. The trademark attribution uses the policy's approved "based on MinIO technology" wording, not the shortened form the policy rejects. github.com/pgsty/minio links are left in place and labelled transitional. The repository has not been renamed, and rewriting them now would produce documented URLs that 404 until the cutover; they change in the cutover commit together with the goreleaser release target, the OCI source label and the raw-content branch.

# AGPLv3 Compliance
|
||||
|
||||
We have designed MinIO as an Open Source software for the Open Source software community. This requires applications to consider whether their usage of MinIO is in compliance with the GNU AGPLv3 [license](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/LICENSE).
|
||||
Silo is distributed under the [GNU Affero General Public License v3.0](LICENSE).
|
||||
It incorporates source code from the MinIO project and preserves the original
|
||||
copyright, license, and attribution notices in [`NOTICE`](NOTICE),
|
||||
[`CREDITS`](CREDITS), and source-file headers.
|
||||
|
||||
MinIO cannot make the determination as to whether your application's usage of MinIO is in compliance with the AGPLv3 license requirements. You should instead rely on your own legal counsel or licensing specialists to audit and ensure your application is in compliance with the licenses of MinIO and all other open-source projects with which your application integrates or interacts. We understand that AGPLv3 licensing is complex and nuanced. It is for that reason we strongly encourage using experts in licensing to make any such determinations around compliance instead of relying on apocryphal or anecdotal advice.
|
||||
You are responsible for determining how the AGPLv3 applies to your use,
|
||||
modification, deployment, and distribution of Silo and its dependencies. The
|
||||
Silo maintainers cannot provide legal advice or determine whether a particular
|
||||
application or service satisfies the license. Consult qualified counsel when
|
||||
the obligations are material to your deployment.
|
||||
|
||||
[MinIO Commercial Licensing](https://min.io/pricing) is the best option for applications that trigger AGPLv3 obligations (e.g. open sourcing your application). Applications using MinIO - or any other OSS-licensed code - without validating their usage do so at their own risk.
|
||||
If you convey modified binaries or provide network access to a modified
|
||||
version, review the complete AGPLv3 text and ensure that the corresponding
|
||||
source and notices are made available as required. Dependency licenses and
|
||||
separate notices continue to apply independently.
