The dual license situation is as follow: as the Committee President (and lead developer), I certify that we the Comittee agreed on the fact that GPLv2 license are compatible with the aims of our project. Just, we want to grant some further degree of freedom for commercial applications, that may prefer to apply FPLL rather than GPLv2. So, we acknowledge this fact and we grant anyone the right to distribute The Falcon Programming Language or any other software issued by our project under the terms of GPLv2. I.e. you may substitute the LICENSE file with the following notice: =============== Copyright 2004-2008, Giancarlo Niccolai et. al (See the AUTHORS file) This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of either: a) the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2, or (at your option) any later version, or b) the Falcon Programming Language License version 1.1 (available at http://www.falconpl.org/?page_id=license_1_1 <or include the license verbatim in a file>). ================ And you can add GPL verbatim or a link to it. GPG: http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xE67C2CA012030B86 - -or- http://www.niccolai.cc/public.gpg - ----- The situation is as follows: version 1.1 of the license (fedora-legal has 1.0) seems to be fine with debian-legal, and my legals have analized it and approved it, but we're dual licensing our project with GPL to remove any possible doubt about our project not being free software. We'll file FPLL for OSI certification and eventually (but not necessarily) stop dual licensing once certified that FPLL grants the same freedom as GPL, and more, by OSI. We ourselves didn't re-release Falcon 0.8.8 under dual licensing just because of lack of time, and because our 0.8.10 version is being readied in this days. We gladfully grant anyone the right to do so if he wish. Bests, Giancarlo Niccolai. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFH/mF55nwsoBIDC4YRAmLhAKCQ555llBq86orlMtMPKASIZO/X3gCfS73V O5LTJQeiLQyRhFvls1/Kaug= =lsIE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- 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
