Hello all, I'm planning to package the aforementioned packages for Fedora, and have a couple of licensing issues I'd like to run through you as the authors of both:
- gnome-js-common has a mixed bag of licenses -- MIT, BSD and GPLv3. Most source files are labeled with either MIT or BSD, but there's a stray COPYING file asserting GPLv3, and ArrayUtils.js does not have any license information in its header (it has no header, in fact). Could you perhaps add a text document summarizing the licensing situation, and if ArrayUtils is in fact *not* GPLv3, remove the COPYING file? - seed is licensed LGPLv3+ *but* it requires gnome-js-common to build. If gnome-js-common is GPLv3 then seed itself would also be effectively GPLv3, and this would propagate to any package that uses it. - when using LGPL, I believe you must also include the text for the full GPL. The current COPYING should perhaps be renamed COPYING.LGPL and the GPL text should be bundled as COPYING? Cc: ing our legal list in case I make some mistakes in reading the licensing situation Thanks, -- Michel Alexandre Salim _______________________________________________ legal mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/legal
