This is a problem that affects lots and lots of open-source projects. The usual model is that when somebody commits a patch, they are assigning copyright to the project as a whole (whatever that might mean), but legally, this is questionable (at least from the perspective of US law, which is the only legal system I'm really familiar with.) I don't know what the right solution to this is, nor am I volunteering to be the one who tracks down all former contributors and makes sure they consent to assign copyright, I'm just pointing out that it's worth being careful about, especially as GHC becomes more widely used. -Tim -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/740#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs

Most open-source software doesn't require copyright assignment, they just implicitly (though stated somewhere) require releasing contributions under the same license. (This is trivial for licenses like GPL that don't allow releasing changes in any other way.) Also the BSD-style license that GHC uses is pretty much liberal enough for everyone, GPL and proprietary people, so there probably will never be a need/desire to track down all contributors. It's still good bookkeeping to list the actual copyright owners, and possibly useful if we ever want to sue someone for violating the terms of the BSD license (unlikely though that seems) -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/740#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs

The question is whether the act of committing (or submitting) a patch constitutes a contractual agreement to give up copyright (licensing one's work under the BSD license is a form of giving up copyright, as the BSD license, broad as it is, involves terms that are different than the terms that would apply if somebody retained all rights.) You say that the BSD license is pretty much liberal enough for everyone, but I'm not that confident. I'm sure all GHC contributors are nice people who would never sue over their code being redistributed, but with the number of people on the contributors list, maybe it gets to be a risk to the project to assume that everyone is nice and the license is liberal enough.

If the code is actually legally all BSD-licensed (no matter who owns the copyright; licenses are irrevocable by default), all users have to do is follow those simple terms, and they can't be sued. (well, not successfully, anyway. But it's possible to sue anyone for anything or nothing at all in an attempt to cause financial harm.) The risk is that some contributor didn't legally actually agree to using the BSD license (which is a less drastic step than handing over copyright to someone else; it doesn't require copyright transfer papers). Does anyone know of any example in an open-source project where this risk actually happened / caused trouble? -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/740#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs

* add PIC relocations for x86_64, and use a simpler hack in place of

This is Wolfgang Thaller's patch sent to cvs-ghc recently, with extra
commentary by me. It turns out that this patch is not just a cleanup,
it is also necessary for GHCi to work on x86_64 with shared libraries,
because previously lookupSymbol() was creating jump-table entries for
all symbols looked up that resolved outside 2Gb, whereas Wolfgang's
version only generates jump-table entries for 32-bit symbol references
in object code that we load.
