These are the emails I got approving the change to a zlib license. I have

Sounds fine to me. And it makes it easier for me to use it in d2x. (which has a
|
|
|
52 |
very confusing license)

As mentioned before, I'm all for the license change since it would
|
|
|
65 |
benefit me personally.

Hi Ryan,
|
|
|
99 |
Sorry for the delayed response. (email troubles at
|
|
|
100 |
Stanford among other things)
|
|
|
101 |
|
|
|
102 |
I approve of a switch to the zlib license for
|
|
|
103 |
code I own in PhysicsFS, so you can sign off
|
|
|
104 |
everything I have there.
|
|
|
105 |
|
|
|
106 |
Thanks,
|
|
|

You know, I don't think I ever contributed code to physfs, but if you

|
|
606 |
manage to find out something I may have, then you have my approval to
|
|
|
607 |
switch it to the zlib license...

Hi Ryan!

|
657 |
For your mailfilters:
|
|
|
658 |
|
|
|
659 |
"I approve of a switch to the zlib license for code I own in PhysicsFS."
|
|
|
660 |
|
|
|
661 |
The change of license makes sense, what use is a library when the target
|
|
|
662 |
audience is reluctant to use it. Keep up the good work.
|
|
|
663 |
|
|
|
664 |
Btw. if you need any other non-babelfish english -> german translations
|
|
|
665 |
just contact me.
|
|
|

I have no problem with you licensing my contributed code for PhysFS to
|
|
|
677 |
the zlib licensing.
|
|

Have a nice day.

Hello. Sorry for delay in reply, things've been messed up for the last couple
|
|
|
723 |
while..
|
|
|
724 |
|
|
|
725 |
I think that changing it to the Zlib license is a great idea... never
|
|
|
726 |
realized there were those sort of complications with the LGPL - thought it
|
|
|
727 |
was a much less restrictive license than your plain vanilla GPL, but I guess
|
|
|
728 |
not less restrictive enough. I've no problem at all with you putting any of
|
|
|
729 |
the code I've contributed under the Zlib license.
