[dtp-pmc] Requirement to change about.html files in Callisto
|
Mike Milinkovich says:
"The IP Advisory Committee of the Board of Directors has advised us that we
should update the content of the About files. The new templates make the
licensing clearer for redistributors of Eclipse software. We have just
posted new templates (http://www.eclipse.org/legal/epl/about.php) for these
files that we would like to have everyone use for the Callisto Release.
(E.g. please switch to these new templates for your very next release.)"
For DTP, this means changing our about.html files before the 5/17 build. I
think the instructions linked in Mike's quote are easy enough to follow,
but there is a provision for encryption use. As Rob mentioned before,
certain Connectivity plug-ins use standard encryption algorithms provided
by the (user-installed) JVM. We will need to work with Eclipse legal for
these cases.
