Novafora relicenses Transmeta sparse copyrights under the MIT license

Novafora relicenses Transmeta sparse copyrights under the MIT license

[H. Peter Anvin]

Hi all,

I just received a git tree from Robert Bedichek, VP of Engineering at 
Novafora Corporation, which bought Transmeta Corporation earlier this year.

Novafora has agreed to relicense the copyrights in sparse that were 
previously owned by Transmeta (i.e. the work Linus did before 
2003-07-01) under the MIT license.

Git repository:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=devel/sparse/novafora/sparse.git;a=summary

Specific commit:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=devel/sparse/novafora/sparse.git;a=commitdiff;h=23525c14bc263d70165fedf469d35cdb31b0ac35

Thanks to Novafora, and special thanks to Robert for putting up with a 
couple of snafus over the course of this.  From start to finish, this 
took over half a year to actually make happen.

That commit is also merged into my copy of sparse at

        http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/sparse.git;a=summary

but it's mixed in with some of my other local changes (warnings for weak 
functions being used in the same compilation unit - it triggers a bug in 
some gcc versions), so if you want just the relicensing it's probably 
better to pull the 'Novafora' branch from the repo Peter points to.

Now, to actually relicense all of git we need to get all other authors to 
agree, but I think we pretty much had that agreement already several years 
ago. I'm certainly personally ok with just going with the MIT license, but 
if people want something else, then obviously that license is compatible 
with a lot of other open-source licenses..

Excellent news. Congratulations to everyone and special thanks
to Peter and Robert.

Now, should all the contributors jump in and state their consent with
the relicensing? If so, for my modest contributions, you have it. While
personally preferring LGPL, I'm also ok with MIT.

You might already know, but just in case, there is a new sparse development
tree with some recent commits:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=devel/sparse/chrisl/sparse.git;a=summary

It probably should become the new official tree, if Josh and Christopher
do not mind.

Hurray! Definitely. Nice work.

Same here (for my tiny little patches).

I personally like MIT; I'm more interested in sparse as a *compiler*,
not a linter, and right now the only MIT/BSD compilers are pcc (ancient)
and llvm (complex), and I think sparse would work very nicely as a third
alternative with a little work.

Great news. I am fine with LGPL or MIT license.

I think probably best let Josh decide what to do with it. He can pull from
my tree if he want. Either way I will keep doing what I am doing. There is not
much traffic on sparse any way. Al Viro makes most of the heavy
lifting now days.

I really would like to relicense Smatch.  Probably to GPL v2 or
higher.  What's the status of the Sparse relicensing?  Is anyone
working on this?  Should I start emailing people to get individual
sign-offs on using the MIT license?

Does anyone still has this version? I cannot find it in the three sparse repos
[1,2,3] on git.kernel.org.

I have a copy; I have uploaded it to:

http://git.zytor.com/?p=users/hpa/sparse/sparse.git;a=commitdiff;h=23525c14bc263d70165fedf469d35cdb31b0ac35

It would be good if someone would not only pull this but merge it into
the master branch of the main sparse repo.

Would be nice when you would do that or at least add a "relicense" branch to
have it available for the relicensing process.

The following Authors may have to be asked for their aggreement to relicense
their work under the MIT license. The data is gathered by checking the author
field between

(chrisl's sparse repo). At least I understood the idea behind this thread so [1].

Some of them may not have be really asked because their contributions is not

Can Dan Carpenter sync his list and let us know what the state of the

Actually I remember to have seen this exercise before.

Afair I have already given my consent before even though most likely my
changes aren't substantial to count.

Sorry your mail ended up inside the spam folder and I've only monitored the

Please keep in mind that the minor just says "propably not copyrightable" and 
not "nobody cares about this contribution". Every contribution is good.

The biggest "problem" seems to be Luc Van Oostenryck. Are we sure he is still 
alive? Because I have problems finding some working address for him. Maybe 
someone could try to contact him through linkedin or some other form.

I assume most of those belong to Sparse/LLVM. Xi, any objections to
relicensing them under the MIT license?

Luc Van Oostenryck was Josh's summer of code student.  Josh volunteered
at Kernel Summit to try find him.  :)

Jan Pokorný agreed to the relicense.  I'll send that to you.

I have shortened the list to remove the persons which aggreed to a license 
change of sparse from the problematic OSL 1.1 to the MIT license. I've also 
added alternative mail addresses for people which changed their address

The biggest show stopper for a license change is Xi Wang <xi.wang@gmail.com>.

Already a big thanks to all the people which are helping to hopefully get this 
license change happening after so many years. And to everyone I've BCCed, 
please check whether you aggree to a license change and reply to this mail 
like the other people [2] who were asked.

MIT license is fine with me.

[Adam DiCarlo]

Hello,

I agree with the license change.

My current emails: adam@bikko.org, adam.dicarlo@gmail.com

My former emails: bikko@us.ibm.com, adam@f2it.com

aph@debian.org is not me -- it's a different Adam Di Carlo.

Hi,

I receive reply from Xi Wang. He is fine with the MIT license change.
I quote his email here.
