Hi all, I just pushed ESLint v0.7.3. This fixed a few outstanding bugs and I believe makes us pretty solid for the time being. Details:
http://eslint.org/blog/2014/07/eslint-0.7.3-released/ One of the changes was some documentation updates around copyright and licensing. I'd encourage everyone to read it over: https://github.com/eslint/eslint/commit/5415073055c8ca38d9af3b8b0c48cc7dfa1fec24 This isn't actually any different than how things already are. I always intended for people's contributions to have the copyright of the author and anyone who substantially changed the code. I'm just trying to make this more explicit to help with open source-related issues. In the future, I'll like add a very simple contributor license agreement (CLA) that will automatically get added into pull requests that verifies you're giving ESLint permission to use your contributions. It would be something super-light, basically saying, "Is it okay for us to use this in ESLint?" you'll reply "Yes" right in the PR, and that response will be recorded somewhere. I've avoided a CLA because I think it represents a barrier to contribution. However, not having one is preventing ESLint from being included in some projects with very strict open source policies. When I dug in, I found out they really just needed assurance that everyone who contributed code had agreed to having it distributed with the project. Hence, I can cover that with a one line-question in pull requests because if there's any question, I can just refer them back to the PR and the place where the contributor said "yes". Hopefully that's light enough that it won't prevent contributions and will give us the permissions we need to allow even the strictest open source project to use ESLint. -- ______________________________ Nicholas C.
