Re: [pgadmin-hackers] Need help with GTK bug

2003-11-18 Thread Hiroshi Saito
Hi Adam.,
and Raphaël.

I spend time to be already considerable on this problem.:-(
However, there is no good development.
As for the root trunk of the problem, gtk Or wxWindows isn't clear, either.
The control of mdi.cpp doesn't go well
event-handler of wxMDIClientWindow can't be caught why.??
How is it in your platform?
Or, good thought.
It seems me that the coding of present QueryBuilder is right.
But, This patch may become help to ascertain it.

regards,
Hiroshi Saito

Yes, 
that may be a problem. IANAL, but I still maintain that even if there is just 
one of Andreas' patches in the code then they cannot relicence it without his 
approval (or removing the code and reimplementing it clean-room style) anyway. 
Same applies to any contributions of course.
 
This 
is exactly why the pgAdmin II migration wizard is GPL and a seperate download - 
it is based on code from pgAdmin I which was GPL, and I couldn't contact all of 
the contributors.

No. They cannot retroactively change the licence on what we already

Dear Adam,

I don't know. Probably not very important because the assignements are illegal 
in most European countries. 

The most important point to me is that assignments are being put on hold, not 
canceled. Which means that the members of the board are well-aware that the 
assignments are not valid in European law, but still refuse to cancel them.

Why can't they simply cancel the assignments and propose new/modified ones in 
one week or more? Everyone would probably sign back.

I am tired of all this.

Cheers, Jean-Michel

This sounds quite ominous considering that we do exactly that: 
distribute a private port of wxWindows.  Also, depending on the license 
they choose to distribute wxWindows under, could it cause problems with 
our product (i.e. GPL vs LGPL)?

Are you going to bother submitting more now they will probably reject

I'll still post patches, if I believe they are necessary. The last 
message from Julian about this states "In any event, we will not pursue 
copyright assignment to the point where the effort to do so causes 
collateral damage and comes at the expense of valuable contributions to 
the project. " and "Until we have further legal feedback (...) we will 
be accepting patches and bug fixes in the normal way. "
Well, unfortunately the normal way only a single patch I posted in the 
last months was accepted (by Robin), some are discussed in an academic 
and puristic fashion ("I don't like this", "can't we have some fancy 
inheritance way"), and most are simply not discussed at all.

I'm very tired of discussing anything with certain wx people being in 
charge of commitments; it's *much* less work maintaining our periodic 
snapshots and applying the patches.

Regards,
Andreas

Dear all,

To summarise what Andreas wrote on the wx list (from memory): the individual 
contributors signing the assignment bear all risks with no gain.

My opinion is that Borland needs such an assignment for precise reasons on the 
long run. For example double-licensing or add-on products. Otherwise, the 
LGPL-compatible license would suffice.

From the statement page, http://www.wxwindows.org/sf/lstatement.htm:

<<
- At the same time, the Board acknowledges that unforeseeable changes and 
future events could cause a need to revise licensing policy to reflect 
changed reality, and the Foundation has the right to license the wxWindows 
code under different licenses or to allow additional, different licensing 
models. The Board does not currently know of any such events, but cannot rule 
out the possibility.

- Contributions to the wxWindows project will not be licensed under a license 
(such as the "BSD-style" license) that allows private ports to be 
distributed. 

- Contributions to the WxWindows project will remain available under an open 
source license meeting the requirements of the Debian Free Software 
Guidelines or the Open Source Definition, with a single exception possible 
should significant legal problems develop with the Debian Free Software 
Guidelines or the Open Source Definition. The Board hopes fervently that this 
exception never arises.
>>

Unreal !!!

In my opinion, I don't see any statement explaining that wxWindows is a common 
single work. As there is no definition of the word "contribution", the main 
trunk of wxWindows can be double-licensed and contributions released under a 
Free license. Or Borland is going to buy developement time and release the 
work under proprietary licenses. As a result, we will never benefit from 
Borland "help" and "protection". This is very clear reading the statement 
page.

Now, to understand the wxTeam mind, ask:

"Dear Sir, can I cancel the illegal assignment
now and sign again in one week?"

(the assignment is completely illegal in Europe)

And you will probably get the answer:

"Thanks for donating your work ...
We are working on a new assignment ...
Bye, bye"

On the list, I have been asking for "public" discussions. I don't see any. As 
usual, everything is discussed in the back doors. Who is working on a new 
assignment: Borland? Is Borland the center of the world?

People interested in canceling the assignment can visit:
http://wiki.wxwindows.org/wiki.pl?Rantings

You don't have to be ashamed to say "No".

Question : "Can I own your house provided that you live in it for free?"
Answer : "No".

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

Dear Adam, Raphaël, Andreas

With your explanations, it seems that:
- Build Time dependencies are quite limited,
- We are going to stick to wxGTK2ud.

So, I agree with you all. This is the power of the Internet, we can discuss 
and arrive to a solution pretty quickly. Thank!

Adam: I am not very familiar with conditional statements in RPM specs. Could 
you give me an example of a conditional statement in an RPM spec? I will work 
out the dependencies for other systems.

About Andreas patches: I hope that they will be integrated quite fast. I don't 
understand the logic behind all this. It seems "unreal" to keep a broken 
wxWindows for a long time.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

(For those that don't know, the wx team want all patch submitters to
sign over copyright etc. on their code - this is at request of Borland).
