License change request (Apache License v2.0) #60

Closed edsiper closed 6 years ago

edsiper commented 6 years ago

answering @errm requirement

Fluentd organization and CNCF are happy to receive this plugin and hosted it under the official fluent/ organization. The only requirement is the license change to Apache License v2. If all authors agreed on that and the license is changed, we can start the transition.

@cosmo0920 @repeatedly @emacski @Jitsusama @mikekap @neko-neko @jescarri

You have all contributed code to this plugin could you please comment below indicating that you are happy for me to relicense your code as Apache License v2.

If you are unhappy for some reason please also comment so I can take action to replace your code...

Jitsusama commented 6 years ago

I personally use Apache 2 on all of my own projects. I prefer true freedom to chained freedom (yes, I’m speaking about you GPL!)

errm commented 6 years ago

Currently the plugin is MIT licensed... Mainly because this is fairly much the default choice in the Ruby world... AFAIKT it is much the same as Apache just without the Patent grant stuff... but clearly contributor consent is the key thing here before we change anything.

I'm ok for Apache 2 :)

cosmo0920 commented 6 years ago

I'm also OK for Apache-2.0 license. :smile:

mikekap commented 6 years ago

I'm ok relicensing under the Apache 2.0 license.

emacski commented 6 years ago

I'm ok with Apache 2.0 license as well

errm commented 6 years ago

Also @richm are you OK with moving to Apache 2.0, sorry I missed you yesterday... I was tiered?

neko-neko commented 6 years ago

I'm ok for Apache2 license :)

richm commented 6 years ago

@errm yes, Apache 2.0 is fine

errm commented 6 years ago

Oops missed one more person ... ping @jtwile2 re this ... you didn't show up in the contributors thing in github... but I remember your PR :)

errm commented 6 years ago

@jtwile2 & @jescarri it would be great to hear if you are ok with us relicensing this plugin with the Apache 2.0 license so we can transfer it to the fluentd organisation...

If I don't hear within a week or so I will remove the code in question from the project ...

errm commented 6 years ago

Ok I said a week... but I went ahead and rewrote a few lines so we can push forward with this ... the 1.0.0 branch is now relicensed as Apache 2.0.

Thank you to everyone for coming forward quickly and making this so painless...
