Summary: Review Request: perl-DateTime-Precise - Perform common time and date operations with additional GPS operations https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=426827 ------- Additional Comments From tcallawa@xxxxxxxxxx 2008-01-30 11:52 EST ------- In the US, you do not need to declare copyright, it is implicit (the Berne Convention provides it), but this is a little tricker, because the author wrote this code while working at the USGS. Since the USGS is a division of the United States Government, this code is considered "a work of the United States government" which, as defined by United States copyright law, is "a work prepared by an officer or employee of the U.S. government as part of that person's official duties." All such works are not entitled to domestic copyright protection under U.S. law, sometimes referred to as "noncopyright." They are considered to automatically be in the Public Domain. (The only possible exception to this would be if the author was writing this code as a contractor for the USGS, and part of the contract specified the copyright and licensing for the code. Since this is obviously not the case, we can ignore this exception.) So, we're ok to ship this, marked as Public Domain. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
