[arch-projects] [dbscripts] Licensing of the dbscripts repository under the GPL-2.0-or-later
Hi all, I'm one of the current maintainers of the Arch Linux dbscripts [1]. Unfortunately, it did not used to have a license, and to fix that, I have agreed with Pierre Schmitz, Aaron Griffin, Judd Vinet, and Dan McGee (who between us cover 581/715 of the commits in the repository) to license it under the terms of the GPL-2.0-or-later [2]. If you're getting this email (which is cross-posted to the arch-projects mailing list) then you've contributed changes in the past as well, which I would appreciate a positive affirmation that you consent to your contribution(s) being distributed under this license as well. (If there is a different license you'd prefer, then I will have to see what we can do, but I'm hoping that won't be necessary...) Here's the (deduplicated) list of `git shortlog` committers: Abhishek Dasgupta <abhidg@gmail.com> Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> Andrea Scarpino <andrea@archlinux.org> Daniel J Griffiths <ghost1227@archlinux.us> Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org> Eric Bélanger <eric@archlinux.org> Florian Pritz <bluewind@xinu.at> François Charette <francois@archlinux.org> Henning Garus <henning.garus@gmail.com> Jan Alexander Steffens (heftig) <jan.steffens@gmail.com> Jan de Groot <jan@archlinux.org> Jelle van der Waa <jelle@vdwaa.nl> Johannes Löthberg <johannes@kyriasis.com> Levente Polyak <anthraxx@archlinux.org> Luke Shumaker <lukeshu@parabola.nu> Rémy Oudompheng <remy@archlinux.org> Scott Horowitz <stonecrest@gmail.com> Simo Leone <simo@archlinux.org> Thomas Bächler <thomas@archlinux.org> Travis Willard <travis@archlinux.org> Xavier Chantry <shiningxc@gmail.com> -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User [1] https://git.archlinux.org/dbscripts.git/about/ https://github.com/archlinux/dbscripts [2] https://spdx.org/licenses/GPL-2.0-or-later.html
