Hi all, A while ago, I was trying to contact Robert Nation to determine whether he would be willing to relicence his files to the GPL. Unfortunately, I have been unsuccessful in my attempts in finding an email address for him.
I appreciate this was done in order to be more compliant with Github's T&Cs, however, I believe this is perhaps a worthwhile exercise, regardless of that point. I believe we should take an approach similar to that of OpenSSL[0] wherein they made every effort to contact past authors[1]. It seems that even if did not get a response, the licence change still went ahead. IANAL, so I cannot comment on this in that regard. However, it should be noted that this approach did have lawyers behind it to begin with. Any thoughts? -- Thomas Adam [0] https://www.openssl.org/blog/blog/2017/03/22/license/ [1] https://license.openssl.org/
