From 0e08b94700234d6004194ae93d9641c9f2026565 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Snow Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2022 16:04:37 -0400 Subject: python/qmp-shell: relicense as LGPLv2+ MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit qmp-shell is presently licensed as GPLv2 (only). I intend to include this tool as an add-on to an LGPLv2+ library package hosted on PyPI.org. I've selected LGPLv2+ to maximize compatibility with other licenses while retaining a copyleft license. To keep licensing matters simple, I'd like to relicense this tool as LGPLv2+ as well in order to keep the resultant license of the hosted release files simple -- even if library users won't "link against" this command line tool. Therefore, I am asking permission from the current authors of this tool to loosen the license. At present, those people are: - John Snow (me!), 411/609 - Luiz Capitulino, Author, 97/609 - Daniel Berrangé, 81/609 - Eduardo Habkost, 10/609 - Marc-André Lureau, 6/609 - Fam Zheng, 3/609 - Cleber Rosa, 1/609 (All of which appear to have been written under redhat.com addresses.) Eduardo's fixes are largely automated from 2to3 conversion tools and may not necessarily constitute authorship, but his signature would put to rest any questions. Cleber's changes concern a single import statement change. Also won't hurt to ask.
