Thanks for doing that :-) there is a 'le...@documentfoundation.org'
alias - to which I send private mails where people do this. I can't find
public archives, which is prolly for a reason.

 finding that statement in the mailing list history is not trivial.. so
 having these referenced in a centralized place in the wiki would help.

True.

 I encourage patch submitters to fill the wiki page above with the
 relevant information. If you do not want to create a wiki account,
 send me an email with the information you'd like to see there and
 I'll fill it for you.

Thanks for diging that out :-)

 Note: I'll use this email for the purpose of registering my statement
 of license. This is _my_ version of it, by no mean should this be
 considered a template or a suggested wording :-) IANAL etc...

ATB,

Michael.

[Libreoffice] Licensing information collection for Dev submitting patch

2011-08-28 Thread Norbert Thiebaud 
I've added a 'License' column in the list of developers in the wiki
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Developers

This column is meant to have links to post(s) in the mailing list that
indicate the concerned developers statement of license.
This is useful for patch reviewer/committer when a specific patch is
not accompanied with an explicit license, but the submitter of the
patch has already posted a blanket statement covering the patch he
submit to the Maling list.
