Follow-up Comment #6, task #15151 (project administration):

I understand better now. I was confused reading that the gpl couldn't be used
for images, but it was the missing "or later" clause causing the issue.
The changes are uploaded in exocortex-2019-01-13b.tar.gz
Thank you.

I see.  The same GPL version 3 "or later" that you use for the rest files
would be appropriate for the images.  Please check the GPL HowTo
 for details.

Another concept you'll need is copyrightable files.  For a text format, those
are files longer than 10-15 lines.  Now, all (as in "find . -type f")
copyrightable files in your tarball should have valid copyright and license
notices.

You're welcome.
I'm a bit new to these kinds of considerations (at this level of detail at
least). What license would be appropriate for images? (I could also remove
them, they're unused currently.)

Follow-up Comment #3, task #15151 (project administration):

Thank you!

You license your image files under the GPLv3-only.  We can't host such files
on Savannah, because their licensing terms are not compatible with future
versions of the GPL.

Follow-up Comment #2, task #15151 (project administration):

Ineiev,
Thank you for your help.
I've made explicit the image license and added the license test where it was
missing. The attached file is the plain tar ball, no repository stuff.
Take care.

Follow-up Comment #1:

Hello, Matthew!

Please make sure to include valid copyright and license notices in every
copyrightable file in your tarball.  If you provide a README for files like
images, please list specific images and do include a full license notice.  A
note like "see the LICENSE file" alone won't do, because it leaves uncertain
which versions of the license apply.

Also, it would help if you provided a tarball of distribution rather than the
whole repository.

 Description: 
Exocortex is a knowledge base application with a goal of having few
dependencies and being flexible enough to grow with my and other's needs.
The only hard dependency is a Python 3 distribution.
I use Mediawiki, but want to be able to take my knowledge database on
vacation, etc. and also update the KB programmatically. The simpler database
schema and choice of programming language make this easier than with other
products.
Currently, a Tk based GUI is available along with scripts to import org-mode
files and interact with the database. Future goals are a browser and also
Emacs interface to the KB. I use Emacs with deft and org-mode a great deal and
envision Exocortex being the backend storage instead of the filesystem.


 Other Software Required: 
Python 3 https://www.python.org PYTHON SOFTWARE FOUNDATION LICENSE VERSION 2
psycopg2 http://initd.org/psycopg GNU Lesser General Public License
SQLite https://sqlite.org Public Domain


 Other Comments: 
I use GNU/Linux and Emacs, and want to give back something. This is also being
submitted to Savannah because I use Mercurial for source control and would
like this project hosted here to enable continued use of hg.
