  1. Remote profile options...
    Daniel Martí Daniel Martí jezra

    @jezra those CC-GPL license issues in #heybuddy, were they cleared?

      @mvdan nope. I couldn't find any contact information for the original code writer.

      @jezra Anyhow are the two licenses OK next to each other? Because if not, that might cause me trouble at getting the package into Debian...

      @mvdan I hear that they are not, but no one has told me *why* they are not.

      @jezra I think it's because the GPL considers CC-BY-SA to be an "artistic license", thus making it rather not suitable for software.

      @mvdan I think it has to do with the GPL covering the code and compiled binaries created from the code.

      @jezra So, what should we do about it? There must be some workaround to this situation.

      @mvdan we need to contact the original code writer and ask him about licensing.... or do a clean room rewrite of the code.

      @jezra I recall the code wasn't extensive, surely we can write our own from scratch.

      @mvdan I've sent a message to the author, we'll see what happens
