#14 Missing license/author info
I would like info on sound, music and graphics authors and licenses. The sounds are so good, I would like to add them to opengameart if the licenses allow it for example :) please update the authors and copying file - I couldn't find any author info in svn.
Checking the credits option in main menu will give you some hints, but I admit - it's not complete licensing information really.
so....
Music is made by paniq (www.paniq.org) - released under CC BY SA - that goes for all the mus*.ogg files.
The rest of game assets are made by me and to be honest I have not given it a thought on what kind of license to release them - I'm not bothered if anyone uses them. If you could please suggest a liberal license to release them on, I'll use it.
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ CC BY SA 3 unported. It's that simple ^^ :)
If it's too simple: perhaps this guide can help: http://freegamedev.net/wiki/Art_licensing_guide
Allright. Guess we'll stick to GPLv3 for the "art" too. I added copyright.txt in data directory to reflect that.
Nice & thanks! Can you add sfx info as well please?
Ok. I guess I can't get more specific that this :)
Cool! This means all content is free-software-ok and there won't be issues having the game in debian and libregamewiki.
May I ask you for some small changes?
1) add "<http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/>" after "CC-BY-SA license"
2) add the line
The copyright holder of this file allows anyone to use it for any purpose, provided that the copyright holder is properly attributed. Redistribution, derivative work, commercial use, and all other use is permitted. See <http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Gpl-v3-logo.svg>
under the Copyright line of gpl3.png, otherwise it seems that it's not freely licensed.
3) Change "All Rights Reserved. Free use." of font1.ttf to "Open Font License, see <http://openfontlibrary.org/media/files/phranzysko/407>"
4) Add "GNU General Public License" To the FSF fonts. Not everything released by FSF is GPL after all :)
I'm glad the sounds are free too now. I'll add them to opengameart.org if you don't mind.
And thanks for doing all this 'fun' license/copyright clarification ;)
Done ! Thank YOU for helping me sort out those copyright issues. All I know is how to program rolling balls :)
