You need agreement from all copyright holders. If s...@home contributors assign copyright to the University of Berkeley, as is done with BOINC, then you don't need them to agree, from a legal standpoint. (you probably need the university lawyers to agree) Even if not legally required, it's probably still a good idea to ask volunteer developers for their opinion on a license change; but "being nice to volunteers" is a different topic... _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
