subject:"Bug#555168\: Unclear license situation for \(e\)glibc locales provided by you"

Hello,
you are listed as contact person/author of the following locale:

uk_UA

This locale comes with a statement

% Distribution and use is free, also
% for commercial purposes.

Thus it does not allow modification; it is unclear, however, if this
statement was meant as a license.

As discussed in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=555168 this
locale could strictly speaking not be part of Debian which would be a
great loss. (Currently it is allowed pending investigation).

To properly resolve this, I would like to ask you the following
question:

Would you be willing to relicense this locale to a proper license,
e.g. (L)GPL v2 or higher or another free software license of your choice?

If you have any questions regarding this issue, do not hesitate to
contact me (via the reply-to address set).

Thanks for helping to resolve this!

Let's hope you can reach Neskie Manuel who is, IIRC, the author of
many locales for Aboriginal languages of North America.

It's quite some time since I heard from him, though (about 2 years).

Sure,
I put my name to be contacted in case of any problem. I did not
have any intention to put any license restrictions in the first place .
I believe that statement was inherited from  a template of libc at that
moment.
   I am willing to set it to LGPL v2 or any license to be consistent
with the rest of the locale
licenses. You can delete my name as well since I do not maintain it for
a long time. 

  Let me know if I can provide any assistance you might need.
Best regards.

Hello A S Alam,
thanks for your reply, and no, you did not miss anything, the e-mail
was kindly quickly directed to you (by bubulle).

Did you also do the locale file for pa_IN (e-mail address
amanli...@netscape.net)?

From your reply I assume GNU General Public License V2 or later is
fine for both files?

Thanks again!

Best regards

is more suitable free software license. As I am not expert for
liceneses, while you people can provide better choice to keep
software free. All my contribution for open source should be
available as free software and though should be part of debian.

Please let me know if anything I need to do other than this.

To A S Alam, could you address the below question about the Punjabi

offending sentence included).

Quoting Helge Kreutzmann (deb...@helgefjell.de):
Hello,
you are listed as contact person/author of the following locale:

pa_PK

This locale comes with a statement

% Distribution and use is free, also
% for commercial purposes.

Thus it does not allow modification; it is unclear, however, if this
statement was meant as a license.

To properly resolve this, I would like to ask you the following
question:

Would you be willing to relicense this locale to a proper license,
e.g. (L)GPL v2 or higher or another free software license of your choice?

If you have any questions regarding this issue, do not hesitate to

Hello A S Alam,
thanks for your reply, and no, you did not miss anything, the e-mail
was kindly quickly directed to you (by bubulle).

Did you also do the locale file for pa_IN (e-mail address
amanli...@netscape.net)?

yes, that was another my oldest/first email.


 From your reply I assume GNU General Public License V2 or later is
fine for both files?

that is fine.

Bug#555168: Unclear license situation for (e)glibc locales provided by you

2012-06-16 Thread Helge Kreutzmann

Hello,
you are listed as contact person/author of the following locale:

id_ID

This locale comes with a statement

% Distribution and use is free, also
% for commercial purposes.

Thus it does not allow modification; it is unclear, however, if this
statement was meant as a license.

As discussed in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=555168 this
locale could strictly speaking not be part of Debian which would be a
great loss. (Currently it is allowed pending investigation).

To properly resolve this, I would like to ask you the following
question:

Would you be willing to relicense this locale to a proper license,
e.g. (L)GPL v2 or higher or another free software license of your choice?

If you have any questions regarding this issue, do not hesitate to
contact me (via the reply-to address set).

Thanks for helping to resolve this!

 Ce serait quand même un peu ballot que Debian retire la locale
 française de la libc. Je serais largement au chomage..:-)

The fr_FR was taken over by traduc.org in March 2008, and the update of
this file have been discussed on the traduc mail list from
January to March 2008 (http://listes.traduc.org/pipermail/traduc/).

At that time, the license was not discussed, as we were under the
impression this file was part of the glibc and distributed under the same
license.

The original author of this file is Keld Jørn Simonsen.

Provided that Keld Jørn Simonsen agree with this, we would be very happy
to see this file officially put under a Free license. Using the same
license as the glibc would be fine for us.

Hope that helps.

Best Regards.

Indeed, the imaginet.co.uk address is not mine at all.

I hereby licence all of my Debian translations under the GNU LGPLv2 or

To the best of my memory, I was the sole contributor to d-i and probably
any other Debian-specific translations.

Bug#555168: Unclear license situation for (e)glibc locales provided by you

The file says:

So I assume that (unfortunately) you are not the person who did the
Welsh locale?

Thanks!

Quoting Dafydd Harries (d...@debian.org):
 
 Indeed, the imaginet.co.uk address is not mine at all.
 
 I hereby licence all of my Debian translations under the GNU LGPLv2 or
 later. Is this sufficient?

Actually, Dafydd, the point was about the Welsh locale (cy_GB) where
it seems that your name was appearinghowever with that
imaginet.co.uk address.

Seeing your name and knowing your past history, I assumed that the
Dafydd Harries who contributed that local was you but maybe I'm
mistaken. After all, Harries is a common family namy in Wales and do
is Dafydd, right?

Oh, it's another Dafydd...but I know him too...:-)

Indeed, this new Dafydd took over Welsh D-I translations of the old (not
so old, indeed) Dafydd...:-)

His mail address is d...@fydd.org (one the the nicest mail addresses I've
ever seen).

Thanks, Daf, for your input and sorry for the misunderstanding.

2012-06-09 Thread Christian PERRIER

Hello Helge,

Great but tedious work you're doing on locales licences. IIRC, you
already asked me about those I contributed, right?

Quoting Tomislav Vujec (tvu...@redhat.com):

 I suspect that the only reason that this file references me as a contact is 
 since it was based off Croatian locale that I put together two decades ago. I 
 no longer maintain Croatian locale, but since this one is based off my work 
 that was LGPLd, I believe the same license should apply to it, granting 
 rights for use, distribution and modification according to LGPL.
 
 I hope this helps. Please let me know if there's anything else I'd need to do.


The other contributor, namely Pablo Saratxaga, is a well-known name in
the l10n community. He was (is?) working at Mandrakesoft and doing a
lot of l10n-related work.

You can very certainly reach him by googling a bit, which is certainly
worth it as he contributed many locales. Trying to find an alternative
address to @mandrakesoft.com might be a good idea.

 Helge,

 Let's see what Dwayne has to say. it might be possible to fix all of my 
 legacy out of all of the locales in one go. I would probably just defer to 
 him in the end.

 Hello Schalk,
 thanks for your quick reply.

 Absolutely, please remove the text and adjust the license to be the
 same as whatever af_ZA, en_ZA are licensed as nowadays.
 This is not possible: af_ZA has no clause while en_ZA has has the same
 problematic text as en_BW and en_ZW.

 The no clause text can be interpreted to be the same license as
 (e)glibc, but if possible an concrete license would be preferable, so
 either LGPL v 2.1 or later or maybe same license than (e)glibc.

 I have added that text way back in the 90s when the localisation
 effort was just starting in Southern Africa. It is worth a review
 anyway. I have CC'd Dwayne Bailey who coordinated *_ZA locales
 subsequently.
 Thanks. I was going to mail him later for his locales.

 Greetings

Nope, you already told it the bug before I started[1]. I listed all
possibly unclear licenses and their resolution[2]. See [3] and [4] for
an explanation.

Both e-mail adresses known to me failed (with timeouts). 

My plan is to first send out all e-mails and see what I get. For those
who contributed lots of locales, I collected them in one mail
(unfortunately all e-mail addresses were invalid), currently I'm
working through the remaining list. 

I'm not going for the implicit list unless the author also worked on
the non modify one, at least for now.

Bug#555168: Unclear license situation for (e)glibc locales provided by you

Hello,
you are listed as contact person/author of the following locale:

cv_RU

This locale comes with a statement

% Distribution and use is free, also
% for commercial purposes.

Thus it does not allow modification; it is unclear, however, if this
statement was meant as a license.

As discussed in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=555168 this
locale could strictly speaking not be part of Debian which would be a
great loss. (Currently it is allowed pending investigation).

To properly resolve this, I would like to ask you the following
question:

Would you be willing to relicense this locale to a proper license,
e.g. (L)GPL v2 or higher or another free software license of your choice?

If you have any questions regarding this issue, do not hesitate to
contact me (via the reply-to address set).

Thanks for helping to resolve this!

 Helge,
 
 I suspect that the only reason that this file references me as a
 contact is since it was based off Croatian locale that I put
 together two decades ago.  I no longer maintain Croatian locale, but

Correct, it clearly states that:
TODO/bs_BA:% Source: adapted from Croatian locale
TODO/bs_BA:source adapted from Croatian locale

However, the croation one has the same clause.

 since this one is based off my work that was LGPLd, I believe the
 same license should apply to it, granting rights for use,
 distribution and modification according to LGPL.

 I hope this helps. Please let me know if there's anything else I'd need to do.

Definitly. Just for clarity:
So may I note that »LGPGL 2.1 and later« applies to both bs_BA and
hr_HR?

Thanks!
