[Grub-dev] Perl / POE client

Sun Jan 13 17:29:01 UTC 2008

Thanks Eriam, POE sounds interesting. While I haven't had the time (yet) to
take a look through the code it sounds promising.

It also seems like having more than one license in the grub SVN could either
be: 1) more complicated than it is worth, or 2) eventually lead to problems.

I do favor the GPL in general, but I am not promoting an "specific" license,
just one license that we can all get behind.

I think the model to look at is the Apache foundation. Whenever some one
gets commit access they have to sign a waiver saying that this and any
future code they contribute is automatically under the Apache license.

I'm not saying we need something as formal, it could be a quick email
template -- but I think the general idea is sane when working with many
contributors.
