Hi, I noticed that buglabs wiki had no license, Then buglabs people fixed it(adding a license to it),but they noticed that openembedded's wiki was in the same situation.
Why do we need a license? Simply because by default copyright law don't allow modification or copying of a work.So if some people modify the wiki,they may be infringing the copyright of the previous author. Only the previous author can exercise his right(only the copyright owner can sue someone) That could be a problem,and it would be safer to add a license for future contribution,to prevent occurrences of such issues Note that it would be difficult to ask permission to all the contributors of the wiki for changing the copyright of their work. I'm open to every free license for my small contributions(from non-copyleft licenses to copyleft ones) Denis. _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
