Joe Brockmeier commented on CLOUDSTACK-145:
-------------------------------------------
Chip,
Looking at the license for OpenSSH, it appears that *if* the configuration file
was considered copyrighted it would be under a BSD 2-Clause license. (Portable
OpenSSH is distributed under several licenses, all "under a BSD license or a
license more free than that."
Several pieces are called out under specific licenses, the remainder is under
2-Clause BSD. So - if we're going to call this file out, it should be under the
BSD 2-Clause license. I've attached the full LICENSE file that is distributed
with Portable OpenSSH, but the relevant bit is below. Please let me know if you
need anything further so we can close this.
"6) Remaining components of the software are provided under a standard 2-term
BSD licence with the following names as copyright holders:"
Markus Friedl
Theo de Raadt
Niels Provos
Dug Song
Aaron Campbell
Damien Miller
Kevin Steves
Daniel Kouril
Wesley Griffin
Per Allansson
Nils Nordman
Simon Wilkinson
Portable OpenSSH additionally includes code from the following copyright
holders, also under the 2-term BSD license:
