Dual licensing of code

2005-07-24 Thread Simon Kitching
Hi All,

In the last couple of months I wrote two classes to assist in
unit-testing of jakarta commons logging. These classes have been
committed to the commons-logging subversion with an Apache copyright
and the standard APL 2.0 attached.

I am now looking at writing an article about unit testing and would like
to be able to provide these classes as code in the public domain, just
to make it as easy as possible for readers of the article to reuse that
code.

Is there any issue with doing this? What is the exact procedure I should
follow?

Note that the classes are 100% my own work as can be seen from the
subversion history. The actual classes in question are
  PathableTestSuite.java
  PathableClassLoader.java
which can be seen here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/commons/proper/logging/trunk/src/test/org/apache/commons/logging/
or here:
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta/commons/proper/logging/trunk/src/test/org/apache/commons/logging/

Thanks,

Simon

 hi rahul
 
 it looks to me like you have some of the subversion settings badly set
 (http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/svn-book.html#svn-ch-7-sect-2.3.5).
 
 it's quite important that these are set correctly since all the extra
 lines make it very difficult to read the diffs. this in turn means that
 i cannot easily work out what changes you've made. checking diff's is
 the main way that apache ensures oversight.

Ofcourse, thanks for checking.

 please check that you're setting are correct.

Some of the other asf repositories I've checked out came with
svn:eol-style set; it seems the jakarta site doesn't. Is this any of
my settings or are you recommending I check and set eol-style to
native if its unset? I have maybe a couple more site updates coming,
so it'll help to know.

Thanks for your time,
-Rahul

P.S.-What list do I subscribe to in order to receive the jakarta site
svn commit messages?

Copyright line in code submissions

2005-07-24 Thread Rahul Akolkar
I recently came across a code contribution [
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35740 ], which
contains the

Copyright [] [name of copyright owner]

line in every file as pointed out in the Appendix at the bottom of [
http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt ].

The appendix talks about How to apply the Apache License to your
work, does it also hold for code submitted for inclusion in existing
Apache projects? While the above contribution may be useful, I wanted
to check what the norm is within Jakarta, or Apache for accepting code
submissions with such copyright lines.

Thanks,
-Rahul

This was discussed briefly on [EMAIL PROTECTED] 

You can find my opinion (which I haven't changed) here:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-legal-discuss/200502.mbox/%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Basically, I think it's legal for code submitted to apache to have the
copyright of the original author but there are good reasons to avoid
this if possible.

Certainly the norm for commons projects is to have only one copyright
statement, being that of the ASF.

I'd be interested to know if there is a general Apache policy on this.

IANAL and all that.

Regards,

Simon
