[asterisk-dev] License issue
Hi! A customer showed interest in supporting the SIP GIN standard - registering for multiple contacts according to RFC 6140, part of the SIPconnect work. I remembered an old patch on reviewboard that has an issue in the bug tracker - #18705 The patch was never uploaded to the bug tracker, only to reviewboard. https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/1515 Does that mean that the code is licensed to Digium or not? It's clearly licensed under GPL 2, but if I take on this work I need to know whether to start from scratch or if I can use this code and still submit it at some point... Trying to get hold of the original author, but no reply so far. /O -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-dev mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev

(AFAIK) In the past this was manually done but these days it's automatic (yay automatic!). The gist being like Russell said: If a patch is on reviewboard then the person had a valid license agreement at the time it was uploaded.
