Mark, Unless I've missed something, Codehaus has no legal footprint except to demand that its projects select a permissive OS license. There's no assignment and no contributor licensing. Everything is copyright the author and licensed as marked. And the author can relicense at will if the marked license demands those rights from other patchers. Thus, while I'm all in favor of less disorder and confusion here, I think I'm failing to follow the argument you are making. --benson > > LieGrue, > strub > > --- On Mon, 8/29/11, Christopher Hunt <hu...@internode.on.net> wrote: > >> From: Christopher Hunt <hu...@internode.on.net> >> Subject: Re: [mojo-dev] [DISCUSS] move back github stuff to codehaus >> To: dev@mojo.codehaus.org >> Date: Monday, August 29, 2011, 9:11 PM >> On 30/08/2011, at 6:51 AM, Julien >> Ponge wrote: >> >> > >> > Take advantage of Git and GitHub for the ease of >> collaboration, but retain a reference Git repository at >> Codehaus where only commiters can make pushes (possible from >> a GitHub fork where they already filtered incoming >> contributions).
