I have a question about the Sword license.
From what I see the source code is GPL. In many instances I have no
problem with the GPL. In general I have no problem with Sword being GPL.
If I read the Sword/JSword source code and from that design/information

Suggest the license date range be updated to 1994-2014.
And for whoever actions it to add a repeat calendar action for annual
update.

FYI: You are only supposed to update a date range on a file of code when it
changes.
IMHO: Since copyright is a lot longer than any of us will experience, the
actual end year is not that important.

I updated the license yesterday in r3026, with the year 2014 and a new
copy of the GPL. (Our copy was a bit stale and had some errors and other
stuff that had long been corrected.)

Mean that sword requires copyright assignment to CrossWire for all
contributions? If so is this because CrossWire also licences SWORD
under commercial terms or wants to be able to

Yes, CrossWire as always had the policy of requiring ownership be also

Hi,
Packaging SWORD 1.9.0 for Debian, I found possible license issues.
The file src/utilfuns/zlib/untgz.c stems from some older zlib release.
At that state, one could have assumed it to be zlib licensed which is
not clearly stated in any version of that file. I opened a zlib issue at

My Look up app for OS X certainly isn't ready for public consumption.
Part of that is getting the right license information and stuff
bundled with the program.
If I understand correctly, GPL allows me to do what I want with the

Copyrighted works are copyrighted works. I guess it might be best
Yes, I understand the GPL. In many instances I believe it is often the
better license. I greatly appreciate the GPL in regard to my Linux OS.
I also think it is great that you distribute WEB as Public Domain. I
would do likewise if I ever publish like material.

Ahh... okay. I was thinking of LGPL (Lesser GPL), which from looking
at the Sword license page, it clearly is not. So basically I have to

with releasing my source code, I just need to get the right license
information with th
Okay... but my client itself doesn't have to be GPLed? I have to make
the source available under one of the compatible licenses.
And I don't need to write "GPL" all over my software, right? If the
source is available under GPL, do the binaries have to state that?
Just curious about this stuff
