Hi Roberta,

Can you ask this on your other thread and include more information about
whether this is a file that has been donated to the ASF or is third-party?

RE: apache-website-template git commit: Add LICENSE and NOTICE files

Posted by Roberta Marton <ro...@esgyn.com>.
I have a question regarding the NOTICE and LICENSE file as it pertains to an
MIT or BSD license.
If I, for example, have a source file with a copyright notice followed by
MIT license text, can't I just put the copyright notice in the LICENSE file
with a pointer to the MIT license text (or actually include the text)?
Do I need to add anything in the NOTICE file?  In
http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#header-existingcopyright seems
to imply that the copyright should be added to the NOTICE file.

When I look at other projects LICENSE and NOTICE files; everyone seems to do
it differently, even with the same copyright details.

    Regards,
    Roberta

+1, it's OK, though I'd make one suggestion.

The addition of the MIT license text minus the copyright notice (the intent
is clearly to generalize so that it applies to 4 different dependencies) is
a bit irregular.  The copyright notice is an integral part of the MIT
license -- it's actually a license template and is only completed when the
copyright notice has the owner filled in.

    http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT

To addresss the irregularity, I'd suggest either prepending the template
line `Copyright (c) <year> <copyright holders>` -- or simply omitting the
text of the MIT license, instead including filepath pointers to where the
deps can be found in the distro.

Re: apache-website-template git commit: Add LICENSE and NOTICE files

Posted by Julian Hyde <jh...@apache.org>.
I’ve been making some changes to the template and submitting them as github pull requests. (I made 5 pull requests a couple of weeks ago, which weren’t noticed, and Luciano subsequently made very some similar changes. Frustrating.)

I don’t want to clutter this list with dev traffic, but there’s no other forum. In the absence of a dev list, Luciano, can I suggest that you watch github pull requests [1] closely. We can discuss on github, as long as you notice the pull requests come in.

Again, apologies for taking a bit long to address this, as these comments
got automatically archived.

I have addressed both of comments now, where :

- License now have one entry per dependency, with proper copyright notice
- Notice file has been cleaned up and added Apache Copyright entry

Please let me know if there are other issues that still needs to be
addressed.

I'd also like to see this addressed.  Licensing documentation for Incubator
sample code should adhere to best practices.

+1, it's OK, though I'd make one suggestion.

The addition of the MIT license text minus the copyright notice (the intent is
clearly to generalize so that it applies to 4 different dependencies) is a bit
irregular.  The copyright notice is an integral part of the MIT license --
it's actually a license template and is only completed when the copyright
notice has the owner filled in.

    http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT

To addresss the irregularity, I'd suggest either prepending the template line
`Copyright (c) <year> <copyright holders>` -- or simply omitting the text of
the MIT license, instead including filepath pointers to where the deps
can be found in the distro.

Just the copyright notice, i.e. this:

  Apache [PRODUCT_NAME]
  Copyright [yyyy] The Apache Software Foundation

Actually, what should "[PRODUCT_NAME]" be in this case?

+1, those should definitely be removed.
