Re: [Trisquel-users] gnome using non-free javascript??

The require.js script then loads the require.js application they've written  
here: https://extensions.gnome.org/static/js/main.js (this is just one of the  
20 or so files that were loaded in my browser). There's no license notice on  
these files, but we could get the developers of extensions.gnome.org to  
clarify the license of these files.

Neither. If you look at the script LibreJS complains about, you'll see a  
clear license notice at the top. It's a libre script. But LibreJS depends on  
certain stylized comment to detect this, and the script doesn't use that.


I don't think this system of automatically loading JavaScript onto users'  
browsers is any good to begin with, though. I think it would be better to  
either have a dedicated application for installing extensions, or for  
extensions.gnome.org to be made to work with only the plugin.

Those two one-line scripts are just loading require.js, which states:

@license RequireJS 2.0.1 Copyright (c) 2010-2012, The Dojo Foundation All  
Rights Reserved.

Available via the MIT or new BSD license.
see: http://github.com/jrburke/requirejs for details

MIT license refers to the Expat License, or perhaps the X11 License. Both  
of these are libre.


New BSD license refers to the Modified BSD License -- also libre.
