Re: All About the Apps Goal
I don't think most people fundamentally object to maintaining packaging for stores, but not everyone is interested in all stores or knows how packaging for all those stores work. Maybe an opt-in process would work, were the application maintainers are encouraged to move the packaging for a specific store to their repository, but only if they are willing to maintain it. Personally for example, I already maintain flatpak recipes in some repositories, but I have little interest in looking into snap. Some automation would be very nice, for example for updating to the latest runtime. That could be done as an automatic commit or just as a script which opens issues in repositories that use outdated runtimes.

Re: Releasing a non-KF5 library under MIT License
Hi Alexander, To clarify, the MIT licensed files in Kaidan are third party files which are not available as libraries and needed to be copied into the Kaidan repository, with the exception of the generate-license.py script. All the actual code of Kaidan is GPL licensed. Of course this does not mean anything about whether it is generally wanted to host MIT-licensed code on KDE Infrastructure.

The library definitely won't fit in KF5 because it has nothing to do with Qt. The https://community.kde.org/Policies/Licensing_Policy says I can't do this because (according to this policy) the MIT License is only allowed for parts of the "KDE Platform". Can we please review the policy and stop this discrimination against projects that don't happen to be part of the "KDE Platform"? P.S. It seems like MIT is already used outside of the "KDE Platform": - https://invent.kde.org/network/kaidan (at least two files are under MIT) - http://invent.kde.org/sdk/cutehmi (dual-licensed, including MIT) OpenPGP_0xA81E075ABEC80A7E.asc Description: OpenPGP public key OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature
