This hasn't worked out; few projects list their licenses there. In any
case, the wiki page can continue to exist but it need not be part of
the policy.

After Gentoo Linux has become an associated project of SPI,
the Council is the obvious entity to be responsible for the tasks
previously assigned to the Trustees.

Update the signoff rules of GLEP 76 to allow using established
pseudonyms in addition to legal names. This follows a similar change
that has been carried in the Linux kernel's documentation [1] that
Gentoo's policy has been based on.
This change is proposed instead of the "version 1.2" that has been
approved on 2022-12-11 but have not been pushed yet. That version made
the wording significantly more complex without actually addressing
the original issue.

For example, CC-BY-SA-4.0 and FDL-1.3 both require that previous
copyright notices are left intact. Also it is not entirely clear if
and how the DMCA (17 U.S. Code §1202) applies to works released under
a free software license.
No update of version number because this is an editorial change.

- Sign-off must contain the name of a natural person.
- A copyright holder can be a legal entity.

Explicitly refer to https://developercertificate.org/, because
different wordings of DCO version 1.1 exist.
Slightly reword the last paragraph in the "Certificate of Origin"
section, as discussed with K_F.
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
Don't use "separate" three times in one sentence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Note that it can only be used if applicable (requested by mgorny):
"... we should explicitly note that people using kernel DCO can't
commit license files"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
We cannot name it DCO, because the license conditions of OSDL's
DCO 1.1 say:
If you modify you must use a name or title distinguishable from
"Developer's Certificate of Origin" or "DCO" or any confusingly
similar name.

For better readability, format as a block quote instead of a literal
block. Use same format for items as will appear in the HTML output,
i.e., 1. instead of (1).
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Avoid possible confusion, because the enumeration's items refer to
numeric and alpha items of other lists.

- Delete redundant phrase "to anyone's satisfaction" from Purpose/Scope.
- Say "Gentoo Authors" (without "The") in the copyright notice.
- Spelling and typographic fixes.
- Update URLs to https.

Consider input from mailing lists and IRC:
- Require a license notice too.
- Assets like images won't allow for a notice in the file (mrueg).
- Don't rely on line counting, but state that the main copyright
holder must be listed.
Also some of the ideas of this section have been checked against
GNU maintainer documentation:
https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html

Most of this results from a discussion on 2018-01-24 in #gentoo-council
amongst K_F, mgorny, prometheanfire, rich0, and ulm.

Therefore simplifying the policy, as discussed in #gentoo-council.

Given that there are official and semi-official Gentoo projects hosted
outside Gentoo Infrastructure, I think it's reasonable to apply
the policy to all official Gentoo projects, independently of hosting.
Furthermore, it wouldn't hurt to encourage unofficial projects to use
the same policy.
Also update a few more paragraphs to clearly indicate it applies to all
Gentoo projects, independently of hosting.
