Hi All,

I'm sending you that little e-mail because i'm confronted to a specific license constraint while i have to declare my personal work as i'm working for French government. My manager told me that in France i can't declare my contribution as being in the public domain as the french civil code doesn't permit an author to completely loose all the copyright of a given content (not for the public domain, which can be reach only after years). What is possible is to use a very permissive license such as BSD-2 clause license for my work.

Do you think, as it's already done for some of the SSG files copyrighted by Red-Hat, to set a BSD-2 clause copyright to the Debian/ and Ubuntu/ dir ? Maybe reducing them to the lonely content i write (and not the whole dir content, which contains files that have also be written by others) would be better ?

Thanks !
