People can use my contributions licensed under the CC-BY-SA 4.0 or GPLv3+. Text can be covered by the GPL (there's no reason they can't, it's a copyright license at heart.) I'm not sure why you'd choose a 3.0 license when 4.0 is out. I've heard 4.0 solves a lot of internalization problems too. There's some people talking about copyleft licenses requirng you to disclose your work, which isn't true. You only have to disclose the source code to people you distribute your work to, which seems fair to everyone involved. If there's a consensus for another license or a copyright agreement, people can take my contribution as CC0 and combine them in to the permissively licensed work. IMHO copyright agreements are unneccesary unless you disagree on the license chosen. In which case you should probably have chosen a license. _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
