#171 new enhancement

missing copyright headers

Reported by: Julian Taylor Owned by:
Priority: minor Milestone: undecided
Component: unknown Version: 0.6.1
Keywords: Cc: Zooko

Description

each file should have a header indicating under which license the source is published.

only foolscap/sslverify.py and misc/testutils/figleaf.py have such a header, all others do not. Attached a licensecheck -r --copyright output.

actually misc/testutils/figleaf.py has the header 'figleaf' is Copyright (C) 2006. It will be released under the BSD license.

I find this unclear. The source from http://darcs.idyll.org/~t/projects/figleaf/doc/ has the clearer header 'figleaf' is Copyright (C) 2006, 2007 C. Titus Brown. It is under the BSD license.

Could this be cleared up to either by removing it from the source or updating it so the license is clear. Otherwise distribution is on shacky grounds.

and another thing which must be fixed.

foolscap/sslverify.py states: Copyright 2005 Divmod, Inc. See LICENSE file for details

but Divmod is not mentioned in LICENSE

figleaf code removed in [6d938ef], it was out of date anyways (coverage.py is a better modern choice)
