Bug#296514: Cervisia license issues

As a minor contributor too, you also have my permission to dual-license 
Cervisia with GPL, that's okay with me.

Bug#296514: Cervisia license issues

[Ben Burton]

Hi,

Thanks to everyone for their helpful responses.

 BTW, about which KDE version do we talk? Is it enough if we change the 
 license in CVS HEAD aka KDE 4 (maybe 3.5)?

If a license change is likely, I would be most appreciative if the
change could be made in KDE_3_3_BRANCH also (since it appears that we
will be shipping KDE 3.3.x with our next release).

Thanks again,

Ben.

I did the KDE 3 port of cervisia (kpartifying etc.), and the CVS
import. I'm not really interested in licenses. If others want to
dual-license my parts of the code with GPL that's fine I personally
couldn't care less. I'm equally unbothered if Debian remove it (though
I do wonder if the final release of debian will be made when they've
removed all the software!).

Cheers

Rich.

I also don't care much about the license. 

Actually I already thought about changing it to GPL, but I just wasn't 
motivated enough to do all the needed work.

If it is the easiest way to dual-license Cervisia with GPL, that's okay with 
me.

Bye
Christian

 Hi.

 Currently cervisia is licensed under the QPL.  As the maintainer of
 kdesdk in debian, I am unfortunately faced with having to remove
 cervisia from the debian distribution since the QPL does not meet
 with debian's free software guidelies.  Of course this is debian's
 decision, but nevertheless it seems worth bringing up the two
 specific issues that concern us:

Sometimes I don't know if I should laugh or cry when I hear about 
Debian's license issues. If this will become too anoying people will 
just switch their distribution.

BTW, about which KDE version do we talk? Is it enough if we change the 
license in CVS HEAD aka KDE 4 (maybe 3.5)?

 Given these issues, is it possible to consider altering the licensing
 for cervisia in any way?  Possibilities are as follows:

 2. Alternatively it might be worth considering a dual license for
 cervisia, similar to what Trolltech has done with Qt.

I'm fine with the GPL too. Do we really need/want a dual license?


Cheers,
André
