That's correct. > *The only thing you demand is that they distribute the source, and > that the source must (forever) contain your name.* > BSD/MIT licenses do demand that too. That's incorrect. Both Apache 2.0 and GPLv3 permit a requirement to display author attribution in legal notices shown to the user, this is beyond MIT/BSD license which requires only that the copyright notice in the source files be maintained. So, I'm looking for a clause for MIT/BSD derivative which would be an equivalent statement, by "compatible" I mean a "permissive term" by the GPLv3. > > Here's my crayon attempt... > > > > To the extent that an application using this software displays > > legal notices, copyrights, or attributions it must acknowledge the > > Example Project (http://example.org) in a similar manner. _______________________________________________ License-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://projects.opensource.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/license-discuss
