Hi, I recently started Artikulate (a language learning/pronunciation training application that currently lives in KDE Edu playground). As the application becomes more stable, it is a must for this application to gather a large base of language material. This material consists of * XML files that specify lists of phrases * according recordings from native speakers (probably OGG file format) and will be located due to the expected repository size in an extra GIT repository named artikulate-data [1]. But before starting and to add the first course files (that by their nature will/must come from a lot of different people), I want to fix the licensing of those to be created files. For this I created in the repository a README file as well a COPYING.COURSE file (for all courses) and a COPYING file (for scripts that are used for maintainance work). My interpretation of the techbase licensing article [2] is that the course files should be licensed under a CC-BY-SA license. For the script files I chose the LGPL2.1+ terms. What I would like to have is a short ACK that those choices are reasonable and confirm with the licensing policy. Thanks, Andreas [1] http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=artikulate-data.git [2] http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/Licensing_Policy _______________________________________________ Kde-licensing mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-licensing
