Bug#555168: Unclear license situation for (e)glibc locales provided by you

Jonathan,

Yes, that's fine.

Raphael

 Does that mean something like
 
  % This file has been put in the public domain.
  % You can do whatever you want with this file.
  %
  % 2003-08-16: corrections from Raphael Finkel raph...@cs.uky.edu

 for locales/yi_US would be okay with you if Pablo Saratxaga is ok with it?

Bug#555168: Unclear license situation for (e)glibc locales provided by you

2012-07-01 Thread Raphael Finkel
Helge,

I would be glad to relicense this work in whatever way will give it the
most distribution.  I don't want to restrict it, but I would like my
name associated with it.

Raphael

 Hello,
 you are listed as contact person/author of the following locale:
 
 yi_US
 
 This locale comes with a statement
 
 % Distribution and use is free, also
 % for commercial purposes.
 
 Thus it does not allow modification; it is unclear, however, if this
 statement was meant as a license.
 
 As discussed in
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=555168 this
 locale could strictly speaking not be part of Debian which would be a
 great loss. (Currently it is allowed pending investigation).
 
 To properly resolve this, I would like to ask you the following
 question:
 
 Would you be willing to relicense this locale to a proper license,
 e.g. (L)GPL v2 or higher or another free software license of your choice?
 
 If you have any questions regarding this issue, do not hesitate to
 contact me (via the reply-to address set).
 
 Thanks for helping to resolve this!
 
 Helge
