Is there any way to stop asp.net from removing important comments (license, /*! content */) when Bundling and Minifying javascript files with Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimization? im not 100% sure but removing it from the result would be illegal?

  • Yeah. I built a nuget package to do this. https://www.nuget.org/packages/LicensedBundler/ and wrote about it [in a little more detail here](http://www.mikesmithdev.com/blog/keep-important-licensing-comments-dotnet-bundling-minification/). Source code [is here](https://github.com/MikeSmithDev/LicensedBundler). Still don't know why they do this because I agree... seems like makes you non-compliant with their licensing. – MikeSmithDev Mar 10 '15 at 12:36
  • @MikeSmithDev thanks that worked, i only wish that you didn't add `/*! Bundled by LicensedBundler | www.nuget.org/packages/LicensedBundler/ | @MikeSmithDev mikesmithdev.com */`, but its still better then before. – Peter Mar 10 '15 at 13:23

    @MikeSmithDev im a sneaky guy :) but your addition doesn't seems like a license more like an ad that no one sees. – Peter Mar 10 '15 at 13:27

    Valid point... next time I'll mask my self-promotion under more "licensey" sounding text :) – MikeSmithDev Mar 10 '15 at 19:48
