From 74b4760aa81222de32147e16fa7605ce55db9922 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wm4 Date: Sat, 21 Sep 2019 13:58:09 +0200 Subject: DOCS/contribute.md: license clarifications Basically, both the license of the file and the preferred license of the project (LGPLv2.1+) counts. I'm doing that so that files with more liberal licenses don't get infected by LGPL, but allow copy & pasting to LGPL source files without jumping through lawyer bullshit hoops. Mention this in Copyright too. --- Copyright | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'Copyright') diff --git a/Copyright b/Copyright index b9b1e5c209..20f14c6f70 100644 --- a/Copyright +++ b/Copyright @@ -21,6 +21,8 @@ project can relicense the changes to LGPLv2.1+ at a later point without asking the contributor.
