Re: Taverna Mobile Release
Brilliant! Now let's think about the release procedure - it would be our first release using Gradle instead of Maven. I guess we would need to update/fork https://taverna.incubator.apache.org/community/releasing after finding out what are the equivalent commands/actions. Perhaps add it as a RELEASING.md file to the taverna-mobile repository as it would only apply for that one? On 20 September 2016 at 10:56, Ian Dunlop wrote: > Hello, > > Infra sorted out the account.

Taverna mobile has much functionality to release and get the feedback from the user. Ok, I will check every functionality. so before release, we make sure everything working fine and simultaneously fix the small bugs If there is any. Thanks.

Taverna Mobile NOTICE
Hi, If we're going to release a Taverna Mobile binary .apk (or whatever the extension is today) - then that would also bundle the third-party dependencies, right? We would then need to include a variant of the LICENSE and NOTICE file - but how can that be readable from within the app? (As you wouldn't "unzip" the app before installing it). Do we need to use a "About" menu button where the user can scroll through the license? Also it would be good to check on the dependencies if they have their own NOTICE files - it should be easy by just looking inside their JAR files and copy out whatever is there. If they don't have, and they are also Apache licensed, then there should be nothing more to do. BSD licensed ones however would need to comply with > 2.

I am not sure if we could get away with that by not providing documentation or materials :) -- Stian Soiland-Reyes http://orcid.org/-0001-9842-9718
Re: Taverna Mobile NOTICE
Could we put the license and notice in the "read more" section of the play store window that is used to describe the app? Or a summary of the info?

Re: Taverna Mobile NOTICE
Yes, I think that would somewhat count as "provided with" in these cloud days :-) (I am not a lawyer, etc) On 20 Sep 2016 5:48 p.m., "Gale Naylor" wrote: > Could we put the license and notice in the "read more" section of the play > store window that is used to describe the app?
