I scanned several of the projects I have contributed too (Apache, Fedora, JBoss) and they all require copyright assignment. It does not seem to be way off base.
The issue will be, I believe, how Reductive reacts to having the copyright. Some people will be offended by dual licensing, others will be offended by open-core licensing. I dont know that you can please everyone. As long as the actions which Reductive takes are supportive of the community, I think it would be fine. I personally would prefer the LGPL license, but I could see where RL would prefer GPL + copyright assignment. That would protect them the most from a revenue point of view. Anyone know an editor at the Harvard Business Review? It would be great to get the process/thinking pros and cons documented. -- bk --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
