[Savannah-help-public] [sr #106690] License upgrade/change
Follow-up Comment #1, sr #106690 (project administration): Hi Gregor -- glad to hear about your decision. isn't there a checkbox on the admin pages about upgrade license to gplv3? i can look further if it's not apparent to you. as for the doc, as far i know savannah has no provision for specifying separate doc/source licenses. perhaps mention it in the long description? most packages i know of don't do anything special; the licenses are specified in the source tree anyway ... thanks, karl ___ Reply to this item at: http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106690 ___ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
Re: [Savannah-help-public] Moving the GNU libmicrohttpd mailman mailing list
Would it be possible to just have libmicroht...@gnu.org? BTW, this (pkgn...@gnu.org) used to be an option for the name provided by the web interface. Was it intentionally removed? Too many conflicts? In principle it seems like a very nice convention to me.
Re: [Savannah-help-public] Moving the GNU libmicrohttpd mailman mailing list
Sounds good. Since Karl agreed that the list should not be split, we'll keep it as libmicroht...@gnu.org and of course an alias from bug-libmicrohttpd to the list would be great. I'm currently in DC, I'll talk to our admin at DU to get the archives once I'm back in Denver in a few days. I'll then make the mbox available to you so you can set up the archive.
