Did so :)

Hi Sylvain,

In that case, it appears it is merely sufficient to update the license.

Could you change TinyDHT license to "AGPLv3 or later". Couldn't find a place to do that myself.

Thanks,
Saritha

You released old GIT snapshots under GPLv3 - so those will be available under GPLv3 to whoever has a copy, until copyright expires.

New AGPLv3 versions of TinyDHT (old versions + AGPLv3-licensed changes) cannot be used under GPLv3.

Hi Sylvain,

As I understand it, this means any "future" downloads of the code including the old GIT "snapshots" will be covered under AGPLv3. However, if any code modifications are done on downloads already done so far, then those modifications come under GPLv3.

After some serious thought, I think AGPLv3 is more appropriate for TinyDHT.

I don't think there have been any code downloads of TinyDHT yet. So will open a support ticket to re-initialize the code repository. Sorry! This would be a third time, but the last one I promise. Besides, AGPLv3 was released only last week or so :)

Thanks,
Saritha

Hi,

They can use the GPLv3 for the versions they already downloaded, but they won't be able to use the GPLv3 for future improvements that you release under the AGPLv3.

Hi Sylvain,

My project "TinyDHT" is a network service, and I am considering changing the license to Affero GPLv3 instead of GPLv3.

http://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.html

What are the implications given that someone might have already downloaded the GPLv3 code posted on this site?

Thanks,
Saritha

Hi Jan,

Uploaded the code. The dependencies are now updated to:

Programming Language
--------------------

  • C programming language


Libraries
---------

  • libssl (openssl) - only linkage and no derived code

openssl is released under Apache-like license
http://www.openssl.org/source/license.html

  • -pg linker option - invoking gprof profiling

GNU Profiler 'gprof' released under GPL license is a part of GNU binutils package.

  • no derived code or library dependencies on Azureus project.


Thanks.
Saritha

Hi Jan,

Thanks a lot for undertaking the code review.

Some clarifications ...

1. Will fix licensing info.

2. asterisk mainline does not have any file called stun.h or stun.c. These files are my own creation in TinyDHT. However, there is some code which is borrowed from asterisk/main/rtp.c and asterisk/include/rtp.h to implement the STUN functionality.
queue.h is taken verbatim from BSD.

3. The following are the library dependencies.

  • libssl (openssl) - only linkage and no derived code
  • dmalloc - only linkage and no derived code
  • -pg linker option - invoking gprof profiling
  • there is no code from Azureus java library, nor do I link with it.


I have already uploaded the code to the GIT repository (was not clear whether uploading should be done before/after/along with the review). Please let me know if the repository has to be taken offline (Sylvain did this for me once already). Otherwise, I suppose I will upload patches to address your concerns.

Thanks again.
Saritha.

Hi Saritha,

I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah.

1. Licensing information

The address of the FSF has changed, and is now:

 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA  02110-1301  USA

The GNU (L)GPLv3 standard notices include different wording that do
not mention the FSF snail mail address - see
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html#howto. Please update your license
notices.

2. Incompatibilities with the GPL

As you've said, stun.c needs to be re-implemented in order to meet
GPL requirements. The license notes in stun.c and stun.h say you are
their author. You'll have to clarify this.
Also, do this before you upload the code to Savannah, otherwise you'd
violate Asterisk copyright.

Asterisk is licensed under the GPLv2 only (without the "or later"
clause), maybe the Asterisk team would be willing to relicense this
file under GPLv3?

There's no need to re-implement code licensed under the modified BSD
license.

3. Dependencies

Your project depends on dmalloc and Azureus. Can you give us an
updated and detailed list of your project's dependencies?

Also, make sure, that it works with Azureus running a free software
implementation of Java (i. e. 2.4.0 or greater). You'll find more
details at https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/JavaIssues .

 Jan Swierzawski

Hi,

Jan is currently reviewing your code. You'll hear from him pretty soon.

Here is the SHA1 sum.

1f0348c7bf4e17ed8ec84a60e6e9862cff130060

Notes about the code

stun.c - derived from Asterisk mainline. This needs to be reimplemented to comply with GPL v3

queue.h - derived from BSD. Since BSD is a more relaxed license, not sure if this has to be reimplemented as well.

I am the sole author of this code.

Kindly setup the GIT repository for this code.

Thanks.
Saritha

I uploaded the code to TinyDHT's git repository. However, I would like to take it offline and start afresh. Will do an initial commit of the git repository again.

Sincerest apologies for the incovenience.

In any case, should the code be reviewed before uploading it?
If so, I will make it available in a separate location before uploading it.

Thanks,
Saritha

Hi,

Is your source code available somewhere, so we can review it?

Hi,

Our code repository is git and we are ready to migrate it to savannah. What is the procedure?

Thanks.

I'm sorry for the delay in responding; I was in a motorcycle accident and I've had spotty net access since then so my apologizes:

I have approved your project.  You will receive an automated e-mail containing detailed information about the approval.

Regards.

Hi,
  The code has dependencies on GPLv2 only code. And would therefore like to checkin the code after rewriting the minor dependencies. Or I can checkin the (uncompilable) code without those dependencies.
  Yes since GPLv3 has been released I will license the code as GPLv3 or later
Regards,
Saritha

Hi,

Your projects appears to meet the Savannah requirements, except that we cannot review your source code yet.

We prefer to approve project with source code, so we can check it for legal issues (even non-functional code is OK). We will among others check if the source files contain appropriate copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every copyrightable file. Our review helps catch potential legal issues early.

If you need Savannah right now, please explain to us why; otherwise, please resubmit the project when you have source code.

If we approve your project without source code, we will review the code in the near future (or better, at your request). If then the source code does not meet our requirements (for example, non-free dependencies), we will then discuss the issue and possibly remove the project from Savannah.


Do you need the Savannah services now, and if yes do you agree with the above conditions?

In addition, as a point of clarification, do you intend to release your project under the GPLv3 (once said license is approved and out of the drafting stages). Your license is listed as Other (GPLv3 or later), and I wish to confirm this is what you intended.

Regards,
Savannah Administration
