Publishing requirements #43

Closed a-niem closed 2 years ago

a-niem commented 2 years ago

This request incorporates the licensing requirements for the RodTracker program, that must be met before it can possibly be published, for example as supplementary material to a scientific paper. Because this program uses the OpenSource version of PyQt5 it is required to be published under a license compatible with GPL (see FAQ-Riverband Computing).

The updates add the GPLv3 as the license and its requirements to the program. All reasonable code files, i.e. the non-autogenerated, got a short license and copyright notice. An about page is now available from inside the program, detailing the used license and other OpenSource projects used throughout the program.

Thank you for the work! With the version number and publishing date I am OK - although we can also put the date closer to when it is actually published) About the copyright I will make some research at the institute. Probably DLR should also be mentioned, I will find this out.

Please also add Adithya Viswanathan to developers list.

a-niem commented 2 years ago

Adithya is now added to the list of developers.

The version number and publishing date are currently just arbitrary values I inserted as placeholders. Therefore, the publishing date should be changed later (as @dmitrypuzyrev already mentioned) to match the date of the last feature addition or bug fix that occured or the actual date of publishing.
