I notice that there are more than a few projects on pgfoundry that are marked as "BSD licence" but then the project files don't contain any mention of the licence details. In some cases, projects are also clearly marked Copyright of people or organizations. For example, pg_batch is clearly marked "BSD licence", yet the docs and many of the files are marked "Copyright (c) 2010, NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATION". pg_lesslog does contain a BSD-looking licence in the COPYRIGHT file, but is also marked with copyrights. My understanding is that we had a policy of copyright novation to the PGDG. Is that not followed up for pgfoundry projects? I think we should move to a policy of explicit licencing. In the absence of a licence file, when a project is marked "BSD licence" on pgfoundry I think it is safe to presume that the licence for those files is the same as PostgreSQL's licence. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com
