Re: Fwd: reiser4 non-free?



I just want to add that I am very grateful to Domenico for the work he has done in trying to aid integration.

It is a pity that Debian and Suse historically silently cut the attributions (this was before Domenico got involved with us) rather than engaging us in a dialogue about them first, thus inspiring the current license. Once it was brought to our attention, we did reduce the size of the credits by using a random credit program instead of exhaustively crediting everyone. If I didn't see what RedHat was doing to KDE, and didn't see cutting of developer credits as a growing trend among distros, we probably would not be moving to an anti-plagiarism license. You the distros created the need for less free licensing by your behavior, frankly.
