Follow-up Comment #2, task #16100 (project administration): > This isn't an official GNU package, its name shouldn't use "GNU".
i'm fine making it a GNU project (whatever that means). it's not clear what that entails. > Then, you list "MIT" as the license for some of your dependencies. This is ambiguous, please check www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html. if you want to know the exact text, feel free to visit the project page i linked. it has an explicit "License" link on the side. doesn't seem super relevant to this project itself since it's compatible w/LGPL, and it's not a direct dependency. pytest runs the unittests only, and they could be invoked a different way. > Also, LGPLv3 is written as a set of additional permissions on top of GPLv3; your tarball includes a copy of LGPLv3, but it should also include a copy of the GPLv3. done > At last, copyrightable files like tests/data/get_status-1.xml have no valid copyright and license notices. (By the way, who is actually the copyright holder? you tell me. most are e-mails scraped from https://debbugs.gnu.org. but i could easily replace it with stub data and avoid the issue. > The VCS logs are missing not sure what you're talking about. what VCS logs for what files ? > and you are not listed in fencepost.gnu.org:/gd/gnuorg/copylight.list as having assigned copyright for anything like Debbugs). how can one assign copyright to a project that doesn't yet exist ? you're the first person to see this code that i authored from scratch. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.nongnu.org/task/?16100> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.nongnu.org/
