🌐 Có ai biết giấy phép nào nằm giữa LGPL và MPL2 không? MPL cho phép fork đóng nguồn nếu thay đổi trong file mới; LGPL có quy tắc liên kết phức tạp; ngoại lệ classpath với GPL có thể hoạt động nhưng GitHub không phát hiện.

FFmpeg reicht DMCA-Takedown gegen Rockchip ein

Chinesische Halbleiterhersteller wie Allwinner sind dafür bekannt, kreativ mit Lizenzen umzugehen. Jetzt wirft das FFmpeg-Projekt in einem DMCA-Takedown dem…

@skyfaller, to add to what @ossguy said, I think a #copyleft-@next should clearly state that the 3ʳᵈ party beneficiary right to users is intended. While it was clearly intended by #GPL & #LGPL, we've had to spend 5 years & substantial resources in #SFC's case against #Vizio to adjudicate 3PB under copyleft.

Decades of copyleft litigation has taught me that you really do need to say explicitly in the license text what is obvious to everyone, as bad actors love to be disingenuous.

#LGPL permits combos w/ source-available licenses (source provided:no right to modify (beyond building),no commercial redistribution,etc) for proprietary #Rust code but users can modify LGPL'd portions & rebuild/relink/install.
Clearly Rust folks decided —as a *technical* matter— everyone should have source at build time.
Now, if the real goal of Rust is to forbid users from having source for anything…then #FOSS & Rust are less compatible than I imagined anyway.

FFmpeg 用 DMCA 下架 LGPL 侵權的專案

在 Hacker News 上看到「FFmpeg has issued a DMCA takedown on GitHub (twitter.com/ffmpeg)」這個消息,FFmpeg 裡的人針對中國的 Rockchip 侵權 FFmpeg 的 LGPL 程式碼的專案,在快兩年都沒有改善後,透過 DMCA 直接把 Rockchip 在 GitHub 上的專案給拉下來。 比較少看到 open source community 這邊發動 DMCA takedown 的,第一眼看到也是「蛤」,看完後笑得很開心 XDDD 剛好是週末放...

Then again, I can just stfu, swallow my pride, say that #Java is okay to use and go over to https://github.com/git-moss/DrivenByMoss and clone that code to see if I can do any better.

#LGPL even. Heck yes.

Now, #Vizio is arguing that THEY want the judge to rewrite the #GPLv2 because of what was written in the #GPLv3 decades later.

They claim that the #FSF doesn't believe the word “install” meant install, but the FSF already testified in the case that they believe that “installation” *means* “installation” in GPLv2.

#copyleft #GPL #LGPL

#Vizio claims that because we gave our definition of installation that we gave them during discovery (which they asked us for!), that means we're trying to ask the Court to pretend our definition appears in #GPL. The question of what “installation” means in #GPLv2 is a question of fact for the Court to decide at trial (if the issue ends up being relevant to the case at all, which it might not). It's ridiculous that Vizio is asking the Court to decide this issue before trial.
