Hi Tim,


In order to comply with the license on GPL images you will need to offer
the source code (see links on http://qemu-advent-calendar.org/ for each
image).


The Ubuntu Core and Ceph sourcecodes won't fit on our DVD. So we have to
provide links to the corresponding websites. Is this Ok with you? (My
editor-in-chief said that this conform with the GPL.)


I am not the (only) copyright holder of Ubuntu Core or Ceph, and I'm not
a lawyer.  You need to decide whether you are in compliance or not.

My plan is to keep http://qemu-advent-calendar.org/ running in the
foreseeable future so the sources should remain accessible.  If you
mirror the sources it would be best - that way you can continue
providing source even if http://qemu-advent-calendar.org/ were to go
offline.


I'm CCing Matthew Hungerford at Pebble to confirm that the Pebble
Smartwatch image can also be distributed.


Did you got an answer already?


Yes, Matthew responded.  It was a Reply instead of Reply-All.  I forgot
to forward you his response (sorry):

   Sounds great,

   One of my german coworkers is a fan of Linux Magazin, and would get a
   kick out if it being featured there.

   Thanks for asking,
   Matthew


All the best,
Stefan

Hi,

first of all, sorry for the late answer and thanks for your quick reply.


The http://qemu-advent-calendar.org/ website has credits for each disk
image showing who created the image.  For example, Disk image prepared
by Alexander Graf, game by Jochen Voss.  Please include the credits.


Sure, we will add these credits in our HTML menu on the DVD.

The shareware DOS games are freely redistributable so you can publish
that image too.

The Zork UEFI image requires internet access because the Zork game
binary is *not* freely redistributable.  When you run the image it
prompts the user to download the Zork binary since we are not allowed to
distribute it ourselves.


I will note this in the HTML menu on the DVD.

2015-01-08 Thread Tim Schürmann

Hi!

I'm responsible for the content of the DVD that is shipped with each 
printed issue of the german Linux Magazin.


I would like to ask, if we could use the Qemu images/virtual machines 
from your Qemu Advent Calendar 2014 (well at least the ones with 
Open-Source-Software :)).
