Hi all,
There has been no further discussion of any kind about changing the license of Swazoo from LGPL since the summer. Have we put all that behind us now? I do hope so.

Now is turn on me to un-merge your part of Swazoo so that we can relicense Swazoo as MIT. As usually a time is a reason that this is not done yet.

Of course, you'll need to "un-merge" the code contributed by any party for whom you have not obtained explicit permission to make their code available under your latest preferred license, Janko. It's a real shame that you could not live with the license originally chosen for Swazoo, and which attracted contributions from myself, among others. Your campaign has been such a waste of time, especially since you could have instead simply started using an existing MIT licensed HTTP library such as Comanche, rather than messing with Swazoo. -- Make the most of your skills - with OpenSkills http://www.openskills.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Swazoo-devel mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/swazoo-devel |

Change to MIT was confirmed from other Swazoo contributors as well and you made also your decision so please, let this matter stays closed. Changing Swazoo to MIT will allow its broadest acceptance in Smalltalk community and this is main and agreed reason from the Swazoo community as well. So this is my last statement about the license issue and I urge you to stop this debate too. Because it is finished.

I must say that I agreed only because my changes covered a couple of bug fixes and that was it. Otherwise I would have not acknowledged the change *just because of the very way it was handled*.
