How do you believe that this should be handled?
given we have limited manpower, I think we can only setup pages for reference on the wiki, and already this is difficult.
On the other side, the Sun legal department discovered (during a license analysis) that there may be a problem.
*our* problem is to have a brief summary exposing why is the problem and in what circomstances. *brief, because else it wont be read and so be unusefull. *summary because I'm sure the original document is long and hard to read. A link to it would be good, though, for anybody that likes reading (that's why I added links to books on our page) *but we need it because there is no universally approved authority, even SUN lawyers are not. one of the reason GPL is so popular is the charismatic person that is RMS. I'm sure GPL is appropriate in many circonstances, but pretty sure it's not always. You made a very intersting discussion of your difficulties on your web site, thanks. Individualism is high in our world, so many developpers wants they own licence, thinking they need one. Creative Common did a good work, tying to limit the number of licences. The openSUSE problem, speaking as a distribution, is that we need to make all this live peacefully :-( I beg we can only do our best and try to avoid conflicts as much as possible. jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://pizzanetti.fr -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
