I.e., if contributor X agreed that their content could be used under the OPL, how is it that we can just take that content and distribute it under a different license? I don't remember if the CLA has any wording on this. (Obviously the intention of the licenses is very similar, but nonetheless it seems like a murky situation. We did have someone withdraw from Fedora and take their toys with them when we last made a license change on the the wiki, IIRC). -Chris _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
