I also began with https://reactos.org/wiki/Problematic_Licenses
Please have a look, add other problematic components you found, and 
possible solutions if you have some.

Hi all!

I've held a presentation at Hackfest today regarding Licensing Best
Practices, different positions about the GPL and its influence, and ways to
improve ReactOS' conformance with all involved licenses.

I think we should treat this subject even more seriously than others, given
that we are an Open-Source project trying to provide an alternative to a
proprietary product. Also licensing questions arise from time to time, which
is why we should collect some answers.

Please watch the video at https://youtu.be/OTVVz9VLisU or see the slides at
https://svn.reactos.org/press-media/trunk/Events/2017%20-%20Hackfest/Licensing.pdf
Discussions are open now! :)
But if there are no objections, let's introduce SPDX license headers, .ABOUT
files, and a complete license list as soon as possible.


Cheers,

Colin

[ros-dev] Licensing - Make ReactOS conform again!

2017-08-17 Thread Colin Finck 

Hi all!

I've held a presentation at Hackfest today regarding Licensing Best 
Practices, different positions about the GPL and its influence, and ways 
to improve ReactOS' conformance with all involved licenses.


I think we should treat this subject even more seriously than others, 
given that we are an Open-Source project trying to provide an 
alternative to a proprietary product. Also licensing questions arise 
from time to time, which is why we should collect some answers.
