Re: [AppDB] Change licence to AGPL
interesting. Do you have a list of contributors and their signoff on this license change? Or is it just you two? On Nov 24, 2007 12:36 PM, Alexander Nicolaysen Sørnes <alex(a)thehandofagony.com> wrote:

Well I didn't think that was necessary; but after some thought I realize that the AppDB only seemed to include a LICENSE file containing the GPL v2, while a GPL/AGPL v3 change would require previous code to be licenced under 'GPL v2 or later'. So I'm including the other authors in this mail to see if they agree, or have already licenced their code under GPL v2 or later Sorry for all the mess, but legal stuff isn't really my thing. :) Alexander N.

I think I'm ok with the gpl/agpl v3 change. Are there any other people using the appdb code that this might affect? Chris On Nov 23, 2007 10:34 PM, Alexander Nicolaysen Sørnes <alex(a)thehandofagony.com> wrote:

I don't know of anyone using the AppDB at the moment. Alexander

Yeah, it doesn't matter if they have licensed it under the GPL v2 or later or not, you can't change the license on their code without their permission, and if you don't get that permission in writing then they can contest it at a later date should they ever decide they didn't want the license changed. Legal stuff is always messy :) Trent

Yup, I'm ok with that change. The image.php class was written by me for another project. And just reused for the appdb. I've later included it all kind of different projects (open and closed). And never really gave it a second thought. Does this cause trouble? Paul

No, your own code can be licensed however you want in as many different ways as you want. Thanks, Scott Ritchie
