FLOSS Compliance<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>Without \"\"<\/a>a running legal system we do not have FLOSS, neither the F<\/strong>ree, nor the L<\/strong>ibre, nor the O<\/strong>pen S<\/strong>ource S<\/strong>oftware. Only if the four rights have successfully been granted to us by the respective licenses, we have, what we want to have: free accessible software. But for preserving these rights we must thoroughly try to fulfill the conditions these FLOSS licenses impose on us: You can’t have the cake and eat it.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The Challenge Javascript<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a>Sometimes the nature of the FLOSS makes our compliance life miserable. We have described that in a specific post. Here are some additional irritating examples:<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

JQuery & hoverIntend<\/h4>\n

Both, the uncompressed JQuery version<\/a> as well as the compressed JQuery version<\/a> contain a more or less small a header with the copyright information and a link to a page with some information about the MIT license<\/a>. hoverIntend<\/a> is designed as a JQuery plugin. But none of them – neither the libs, nor the plugin – contain the license text.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n

modernizr<\/h4>\n

modernizr<\/a> is a set of functions which is compiled by a configuration process<\/a> and offers only a short header with a small hint to the MIT<\/a>\u00a0license. This header does neither contain a copyright line nor the license text itself, the corresponding license page does not contain an adequate copyright line.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

superfish<\/h4>\n

superfish is offered as compressed and uncompressed javascript plugin for jQuery<\/a>. It is double licensed under the MIT and\/or the GPL. This implicitly means, that one can select the license one needs. The compressed version as well as the uncompressed version only contains a small header without any license text.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n

bretteleben<\/h4>\n

The bretteleben.de JavaScript Slideshow<\/a> contains a header with the copyright information and is licensed under the GPL v3<\/a>. Unfortunately it does not include the license text. But if one adds it manually, the source code becomes so large, that the performance suffers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
