-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Antonio Santos skrev 02-06-2008 17:57: | Hi folks, | | I just released the BitNami Trac Stack for Windows today. For those of | you that didn't read any previous mail about this, the Stack is an | easy to use installer which installs and configures Trac and its | dependencies: Apache, SQLite, Subversion and Python. | | Until now only Linux and OSX versions were available, so I'm happy to | announce that it will work on Windows too from now on. The installer | won't mess with anything in the system (no path or registry needs to | be modified) and it's open source, distributed under the Apache 2.0 | license. | | Our goal is to make open source applications as easy to use as | possible (we have installers for other projects like Liferay, Drupal, | WordPress, etc.)
(...) A noble goal indeed. I'm a bit confused about the license issue though -- in this mail it appears you license the installer under the apache 2.0 license, and the various software under its respective licenses -- but from the bitnami.org homepage it appears you re-license the entire stack to the apache license ? ~ "Open Source ~ All Bitnami Stacks are free to download and use under the terms of the ~ Apache License 2.0" I realise this might just be a simplification for end-users -- but as especially the Gnu Public/lesser Gnu Public licenses have some very specific demands on (re)distributors it's something you can't really gloss over. I was unable to find any clarification on this in your faq, or a quick browse of your site/forums, including: http://bitnami.org/article/bitnami-easy-to-install-open-source-applications http://bitnami.org/faq The individual stacks do list licences, such as: ~ http://bitnami.org/stack/wordpress ~ http://bitnami.org/stack/wampstack But it would appear there's no link to the source-code code for eg mysql, which I assume you distribute under the GPL ? As for the wampstack, I again assume you distribute apache under apl, php under the php licence and and the installer under apl? I just thought this was an issue that might need a little bit more attention on your otherwise beautiful and very useful site. On a side note; what are you using for managing the content on your site ? Best regards, - -- ~ .---.
