From 634924e002a99f71bae435ef48d09dc8551c0e9e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Marble Date: Thu, 4 Sep 2014 12:09:00 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Correct licensing info per author's instructions. I discussed the licensing of this file with Tom Marble, and he agreed in IRC that LGPLv2.1-or-later is the proper license. tmarble: in 2013-01 you sent me some scripts for ods2xls you mention they're based on ssconv but they don't have license info I was putting it into a public repository and then figured I should ask you first. [11:45] oh my.. I will look [11:46] tmarble: if you figure it out, I can commit the files and you can add a license. [11:47] the lib is lgpl'd, that's marked (although you didn't mark your copyright notice if you canged it) http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/convert-spreadsheets-csv-files-python-and-pyuno [11:57] bkuhn: sorry this was sort of a small, hacky script and didn't get the "full treatment" [11:58] clearly it should be LGPLv2+ tmarble: do you recall if you modified the library as well as the script? [12:07] I see you put this in the lib: # PyODConverter (Python OpenDocument Converter) v1.0.0 - 2008-05-05 # Copyright (C) 2008 Mirko Nasato # Licensed under the GNU LGPL v2.1 - or any later version. # http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl-2.1.html and no copyright notices in the main program file can you tell me what it should be? bkuhn: IIRC I did not modify ooutils [12:09] bkuhn: yeah, sorry about that.. it's not even in VCS [12:10] It's ok. I'm putting it public in my small hacks directory. bkuhn: as I mentioned before let's stick with LGPLv2.1+ As I use it all the time. and someone else might find it useful I believe one has a moral duty to share all software. :) please feel free to adjust the headers! tmarble: may I quote this conversation in the Git log? bkuhn: I loved karen's citing your quote "You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one."
