I'm not a lawyer, so I'm very ready for someone to just tell me that I'm wrong, but: Clutter's isn't a copyright assignment. It's a copyright waiver, placing the code in the public domain: http://bugzilla.openedhand.com/waiver.html My concern is that code without a copyright holder cannot really be under any license. For instance, nobody could go to court to defend abuse of LGPL code in Clutter: http://git.clutter-project.org/cgit.cgi?url=clutter/tree/COPYING if nobody owns the copyright in that code. I hope that issue can be addressed. Whether I want to assign copyright is a different matter for me. -- murr...@murrayc.com www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
