Heh, I can imagine! :) Unfortunately, though, Debian-Edu is an english-only mailing list. Hope you don't mind If I keep writing in English, so that everybody can follow the conversation along (and I'll translate the relevant parts of your email as I answer here). I suppose we can switch to our native language in the private emails we will share while working on OpenBoard. > Più seriamente.

[Claudio says that he pinged Luca Capello during the development of sankore, but this liaison is in pause.

[WRT sankorè, development continues under an other upstream. No commits to master anymore, but they released a couple new releases in the last months, probably they continue on the branch "v.2.3.0RC".] I see. Well, actually they keep releasing non-free stuff (like the fonts) there, so it is of small interests to us. I suppose we should/want to focus our efforts on OpenBoard only. > Nel nostro caso la diramazione che utilizzo di più è la diramazione > "develop", mentre "master" viene messa a giorno quando distribuiamo una > versione. [Just to say that the "develop" branch is used for development, "master" is updated when OpenBoard is released.] Ok, good to know. I gave a deep look to OpenEducationFoundation/OpenBoard and I'm glad to see that all files in src/ have a valid header with copyright and license, and non-free fonts have been abandoned. This is so sweet. The only issues I found are in resources/library. Several files here and there have either no header or no copyright or no license, and this should be fixed ASAP, since this would make OpenBoard unreleasable by Debian. Further, I saw several minified .js files. Minifying is great to save space, but is considered non-free by Debian. Not a big issues though: if you are not willing to do so, we can deminify them before uploading the source tarball, it's piece of cake. Further, I assume that all the images unders resources/ are made by you and are released under the same license of OpenBoard. If some of them are not, it should be noted somewhere. Same applies to resources/fonts/*.pfb. A few questions: do you plan to release a tarball soon? And with regard to OpenEducationFoundation/OpenBoard-ThirdParty: is it needed to build OpenBoard? I have seen no recent commits there. Thank you so much for your fast answer and for your dedication to make OpenBoard's code legally-perfect: it's such a shame when great software can't be delivered to our users just because some headers are missing.
