Description Derk-Jan Hartman 2012-01-23 21:58:34 UTC 
We have some work to do in this regard

1: Add GPL LICENSE file in project root
2: Add GPL headers to the GPL license code
3: Create (or better, generate) a list of contributors
4: Include licensing info and authors in About
5: Identify licenses and requirements of all reused components

PhoneGap Apache 2.0
JSONKit (inside phonegap and ShareKit) Apache and BSD


If we include ShareKit https://github.com/ShareKit/ShareKit/wiki
ShareKit includes pre-compiled work from Jon Crosby (OAuthConsumer), Facebook (FBConnect), johnezang (JSONKit), Lukhnos D. Liu (Objective Flickr) and Sam Soffes (SSKeychain).

ShareKit is licensed by the MIT Open Source License.
Comment 1 Phil Chang 2012-01-24 17:12:08 UTC 
Are we suing ShareKit on Android? Or would it be universal once we adopt it?

The other points are well taken and we should get this in shape.
Comment 2 Derk-Jan Hartman 2012-01-24 19:19:48 UTC 
ShareKit is iOS only. We can move the ticket to iOS only once we fixed the parts that apply to all apps I guess.
Comment 3 Derk-Jan Hartman 2012-01-24 21:41:10 UTC 
Do we want to go GPLv2 to stay in line with MediaWiki, or should we consider GPLv3, LGPL, MIT or BSD as well ?
Comment 4 Yuvi Panda 2012-01-24 21:47:10 UTC 
Unless we have a compelling reason to think otherwise, we should go for GPLv2 itself.
Comment 5 Derk-Jan Hartman 2012-01-24 22:15:41 UTC 
Added a CREDITS file to the source code and a script to generate the credits.

Comment 7 Derk-Jan Hartman 2012-01-25 00:53:08 UTC 
We probably should also credit jQuery...

Has been replicated for iOS as of 17584d58b62ff5122680796294ab59614ea8af89
