[Bug 2261] Review request geotrans-3.1
https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2261 --- Comment #4 from Kevin Kofler 2012-04-08 01:39:49 CEST --- Hmmm, clause 2 looks suspicious: What's a "product developed using the software"? Requiring a label to be printed on all those sounds overreaching to me. In any case, the process where freeness is unclear is as follows: * file a review request in Fedora, at bugzilla.redhat.com * in the Blocks: field of the bug at bugzilla.redhat.com, enter FE-LEGAL * wait for Fedora's decision before taking any further steps. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug.

No, I don't think your missing anything. And if you were, I am certain you would probably be missing less than me! The license situation focuses on three issues; First, there is no GEOTRANS license mentioned at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:Main Second, the GEOTRANS license/ Terms of Use (are they the same thing?) is unique and would require significant resources to analyze, defend, and pursue. Just not worth it. Third, the last sentence of paragraph 2 is "Do not use the name GEOTRANS for any derived work." The make system required extensive modification (still would not meet opensource requirements) and there were some patches necessary to activate all features. I doubt that these modifications would constitute a derived work, but, without legal review, cannot be said for certain. Submitting the package under an alternate name to satisfy paragraph 2 would basically reduce and obscure package to total obscurity, and render the entire effort meaningless. FWIY, I am assuming that Geotrans 3.2 (recently released) would have the same issues, but I have not pursued it, seeing as Geotrans 3.1 suits my needs. If Geotrans 3.1 is accepted, then an 3.2 update would be available within a reasonable period of time. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug.
