Rudi suggested I forward this to the legal list instead of just to spot.

Tom,
Your thoughts on creating our own publican and publican-fedora repos?
Feel free to respond either to me or to publican-list@xxxxxxxxxx (although
that list does require subscribing first).
Nick

Please inform me what part of http://www.transifex.net/about/terms/ grants
them any more rights than the normal publican license at
http://svn.fedorahosted.org/svn/publican/trunk/publican/LICENSE does.
"By submitting public (non-private) Content to Indifex for inclusion on
your Website, you grant Indifex a world-wide, royalty-free, and
non-exclusive license to reproduce, modify, adapt and publish the Content
solely for the purpose of displaying and promoting your account or
project."
I believe that per the publican license those rights are granted to
everyone by the GPLv2+ which publican is licensed under.
Also, what prevents someone from creating a separate repo to use for
keeping the fedora.transifex.net translations in?
