I have a server and I like to edit the configs a lot, was wondering if I can get permission to post the configs on my website
cause by law I'm suppose to get permission to do so cause it's not my coding or anything
That's not a requirement by law. The ZEQ2-lite source and its derivatives are licensed under GPL (due to an inherited Quake 3 licensing), but largely we promote and encourage reuse, editing, and spreading as much as possible. It is the project's sole intent and purpose.
To be clear, our configs are not actual code as much as parameter adjusters. Additionally, since the configs themselves are outside the source code itself, they don't HAVE to be covered by GPL and thus can have a much more lax licensing. I've really always considered them more along the lines of an LGPL.

thank you by the way I know I don't have to ask for the permission for some things, but I do it just to make sure
