Hi, Thanks to everyone who responded so far. In less than a day we have responses from (which already covers a large portion of the code base),
Marcus D. Hanwell Casper Steinmann David Lonie Geoffrey Hutchison Jens Thomas Matthew Kennedy This leaves the following people (added to CC from emails found in git log). If they are no longer subscribed to the list we could make the list open for a few days as Eigen did (although it opened them up to quite a bit of spam too). The list below is crudely de-duplicated by me and roughly sorted by number of lines changed. I have not yet analyzed exactly what those lines were, but would certainly appreciate responses from all contributors. Tim Vandermeersch Konstantin Tokarev Donald Ephraim Curtis Eric Brown Michael Banck Jogvan Magnus Olsen Albert DeFusco Benoit Jacob Carsten Niehaus James Bunt Naomi Fox Raimondas Galvelis Ross Braithwaite Jordan Mantha Shahzad Ali Simon Ochsenreither Gary Kedziora Kristof Bal Reinis Danne Egon Willighagen The full email is included below, with the most important part being a response (to the Avogadro development list), If you contributed code to Avogadro, please reply to this email with either one of the following statements (adapted from the Eigen relicensing effort led by Benoit), Yes, I agree to have all the code that I contributed to Avogadro relicensed to the 3-clause BSD license. or No, I do not agree. Anything other than the above "Yes" sentence will mean "No". Without your agreement we will make no attempt to port your contribution to Avogadro 2's code base.
