It is a mistake to try to look too far ahead. The chain of destiny can only
be grasped one link at a time.

[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#733676: node-jsdom: tests license / can we re-distribute tests?

2013-12-30 Thread Dmitry Smirnov
Source: node-jsdom
Version: 0.2.13+dfsg1-1
Severity: minor

I've noticed that during DFSG-repackaging W3C test suite is dropped.
README.source explains:

   remove the testsuite, which has portions © W3C, under a non-free license
   http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/2008/04-testsuite-license.html

But LICENSE.txt under /test in the original tar says:

   all level1,level2,level3 test cases were written by the w3c see:
   http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/2008/04-testsuite-copyright.html
   for licensing

I checked the above link and found that actually tests are
dual-licensed under BSD-3-clause or W3C Test Suite License.

I also checked archives.org to see whether W3C tests licensing has
changed since the package was introduced but found no changes:


https://web.archive.org/web/20100610095930/http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/2008/04-testsuite-copyright.html

It looks like tests are available under BSD-3-clause terms so perhaps
we could ship them. However header of DOMTestCase.js says:

Copyright (c) 2001-2004 World Wide Web Consortium,

Recherche en Informatique et en Automatique, Keio University). All

PURPOSE.
See W3C License http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/ for more details.

From the above page I have impression that Software Intellectual
Property License refers to Test Suite Licenses in which case
perhaps we could re-distribute tests under BSD-3-clause license.

So I wonder if we can ship tests after all? Am I missing something?

Hi Jérémy,

 Welcome Dmitry,
 
 i'm not convinced
 /usr/lib/nodejs/smash.js
 /usr/lib/nodejs/smash/smash.js
 
 is a nice layout for a node module, please consider this instead:
 
 Usually, what i do now when upstream has a non-straightforward layout,
 i keep it untouched and put package.json and the other needed files
 in the path, into /usr/lib/nodejs/smash/
 That way nodejs will find
 /usr/lib/nodejs/smash/package.json
 and be able to require the module from there, without needing a patch.
 As a bonus, require(package.json).version will work and won't need
 to be fixed either.
 
 i hope that helps,
 
I will consider that layout when I'll be working on node/js packages.
Thank you.

All the best for the new year.

 Welcome to our team! :-D

Thanks for warm welcome. :)

 No, your request was hanging there unprocessed - sorry about that (most 
 of us in the team - now including yourself - are admins, so it is odd 
 that noone acted on it for so long).

No worries, perhaps everybody were busy or maybe you're the only one
who knew something about me. ;)

Cheers.

Dear admins,

I'd like to join pkg-javascript team please (did my ~month-old
Alioth request came through?). My Alioth login is onlyjob.

At the moment I'm motivated to work on d3 and jsdom (but not
limited to).

Thanks and all the best for the new year.
