Re: [ddccontrol-devel] ddccontrol-db license question

[Nicolas B. <ni...@bo...>]

Hi,

Well, at the time we started the project the version 3 wasn't out, so I
have no idea what we "indented" to do.

For ddccontrol, it's very clear. COPYING contains GPLv2, but all sources
files clearly use the header stating GPLv2+.

For ddccontrol-db, COPYING also contains GPLv2, but we do not put any
copyright header in the files contributed by ourselves or users, so I'm
not clear if we meant GPLv2+ or just GPLv2 (or even public domain,
actually).

I'd say the conservative option is GPLv2. But I assume no one would be
offended if you put GPLv2+.

Hope this helps.

Best,

Nicolas
