Bug#555168: Unclear license situation for (e)glibc locales provided by you
Hello Helge, Great but tedious work you're doing on locales licences. IIRC, you already asked me about those I contributed, right? Quoting Tomislav Vujec (tvu...@redhat.com): I suspect that the only reason that this file references me as a contact is since it was based off Croatian locale that I put together two decades ago. I no longer maintain Croatian locale, but since this one is based off my work that was LGPLd, I believe the same license should apply to it, granting rights for use, distribution and modification according to LGPL. I hope this helps. Please let me know if there's anything else I'd need to do. The other contributor, namely Pablo Saratxaga, is a well-known name in the l10n community. He was (is?) working at Mandrakesoft and doing a lot of l10n-related work. You can very certainly reach him by googling a bit, which is certainly worth it as he contributed many locales. Trying to find an alternative address to @mandrakesoft.com might be a good idea. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

This is not possible: af_ZA has no clause while en_ZA has has the same problematic text as en_BW and en_ZW. The no clause text can be interpreted to be the same license as (e)glibc, but if possible an concrete license would be preferable, so either LGPL v 2.1 or later or maybe same license than (e)glibc. I have added that text way back in the 90s when the localisation effort was just starting in Southern Africa. It is worth a review anyway. I have CC'd Dwayne Bailey who coordinated *_ZA locales subsequently. Thanks. I was going to mail him later for his locales.

For those who contributed lots of locales, I collected them in one mail (unfortunately all e-mail addresses were invalid), currently I'm working through the remaining list. I'm not going for the implicit list unless the author also worked on the non modify one, at least for now.

Bug#555168: Unclear license situation for (e)glibc locales provided by you
Hello, you are listed as contact person/author of the following locale: cv_RU This locale comes with a statement % Distribution and use is free, also % for commercial purposes. Thus it does not allow modification; it is unclear, however, if this statement was meant as a license. As discussed in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=555168 this locale could strictly speaking not be part of Debian which would be a great loss. (Currently it is allowed pending investigation). To properly resolve this, I would like to ask you the following question: Would you be willing to relicense this locale to a proper license, e.g. (L)GPL v2 or higher or another free software license of your choice? If you have any questions regarding this issue, do not hesitate to contact me (via the reply-to address set). Thanks for helping to resolve this!
