As far as I know we've no formalized license policy for StackForge hosting, though I think there's an assumption that it needs to be redistributable under an OSI/DFSG/FSF recognized license variant. Certainly hosting a derivative work of software which is under a more "copyleft" license brings those additional license terms with it, and seems like a reasonably pragmatic choice to me (compared with the alternative of reinventing the wheel entirely in a clean-room effort to avoid the original license terms). http://ci.openstack.org/stackforge.html -- Jeremy Stanley _______________________________________________ OpenStack-Infra mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-infra
