According to the mailing list, @jberkus is a go on the postgresql license. I'll count that as a LGTM from him, unless @jberkus otherwise objects here. so @tianon ok to merge? |
Is that copyright even meaningful? I don't think "Docker PostgreSQL Maintainers" is a legal entity of any kind, is it? Also, I don't have a problem with the license, but it seems kind of silly that it's essentially just a custom version of Expat/MIT/X11. |
(in other words, LGTM) |
tianon: yeah, we could also use MIT or BSD for this. The only reason The PostgreSQL License has different text is that it's a legacy license which can't be changed for the PostgreSQL Project, because it's inherited from UC Berkeley. |
Switched to MIT, and added tianon and yosifkit as maintainers (valid legal entities, I hope!). |
Please add "other contributors not specifically named here" at the bottom. That way we don't have to update the license every time we accept a new PR. |
Or maybe reference a separate AUTHORS file for the copyright since maintainers implies more than just copyright. ;) (But I'm still +1 on "other contributors", perhaps even with a link to GitHub's contributors list) |
Changed MAINTAINERS to AUTHORS and added to AUTHORS "And other contributors not specifically named here." |
LGTM |
