(CC'ing dulwich-users) Hi there,
You're receiving this email because you are one of the contributors to Dulwich (http://samba.org/~jelmer/dulwich/). The current license of Dulwich is GPLv2 or later. I would like to change that to version 2.0 of the Apache license for the following reasons: * Several permissively licensed projects that use Dulwich or want to use Dulwich have indicated that the GPL is a problem for them. * More consistent with other modules in the Python world and Python itself, where permissive licenses are common Since the Apache2 license is incompatible with the GPLv2 (it is compatible with GPL version 3.0), we would have to dual-license under GPLv2 and Apache v2 license - to keep projects that depend on Dulwich and are GPLv2 licensed happy. Please let me know what your thoughts are on relicensing, if you're okay to see your contribution to Dulwich available under Apachev2 license or if you have any questions. Cheers, Jelmer _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dulwich-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dulwich-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
