=== asac_ is now known as asac
ftamconnor, i don't really know, they grabbed the sources from trunk and built that god knows how. it's not in the official repos but there has been some blog posts about that.00:21
mconnorfta: hrm00:24
mconnoroh well00:24
mconnorlegal can deal if so00:24
ftano need, i should have an experimental xul package rsn, for ff, i'm still not sure how to do it best. it's just a packaging problem00:24
mconnorfta: where's the patches directory for xulrunner, so I don't get angry trying to find it? :)00:37
ftamconnor, you want the branch or the patch site ?00:37
mconnorfta: I want the equivalent of http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-3.0.intrepid/annotate/180?file_id=series-20070321172126-hx4btlytc64jyo4n-2800:38
ftamconnor, so that's http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/xulrunner/xulrunner-1.9.intrepid/files/137?file_id=patches-20070825223227-dck53ndg2coetcqh-100:39
ftamconnor, or http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/xulrunner/xulrunner-1.9.intrepid/annotate/137?file_id=series-20070825223227-dck53ndg2coetcqh-400:39

mconnorseriously?00:41
ftamconnor, hm, iirc, because it touches toolkit which is in xul, not in the files built in ff with xul-sdk00:43
mconnoroh, sure00:44
ftabut it's ~2am here00:44

ftahm, that week was tough, it was during the bug 269656 tournament00:48

mconnorwow00:48
mconnornice summary00:49
mconnorsometimes I really hate FOSS zealots00:49
mconnorbecause seriously, all caps?00:50
ftawell, asac asked me to land that out of nowhere, i guess when he was working on this bug. you'd better keep that question on the list00:50
mconnoryep00:51
mconnordamn straight00:51

ftagasp, http://code.google.com/legal/individual-cla-v1.0.html22:13
mconnorfta: that's kinda... odd22:22
mconnorI mean, if you're contributing to chrome or something, sure22:23
mconnorbut that seems rather weird22:23
ftamconnor, songbird has something very similar, which i didn't sign22:23
ftamconnor, so i can't post my patches in their bugzilla22:24
mconnorhmm22:25
mconnorMozilla's is pretty sane22:25
mconnoryay22:26
mconnorits basically "must be licensed in a way that meets our public policy" aka "must be MPL tri-licensed"22:26
mconnorthe irrevocable copyright license is weird to me, since that almost feels like "we can ignore the GPL"22:28
mconnorbut IANAL22:28
ftait's bsd-style22:29
mconnoris it?22:29
mconnorI guess it is22:29
mconnorsort of?22:29
mconnorI mean, this seems parallel to GPL22:30
mconnoror whatever license you pick22:30
ftahttp://dev.chromium.org/developers/contributing-code22:30
ftahttp://code.google.com/chromium/terms.html22:31
mconnor GPL22:31
mconnor14:30 < mconnor> or whatever license you pick22:31
mconnor14:30 < fta> http://dev.chromium.org/developers/contributing-code22:31
mconnor14:31 < fta> http://code.google.com/chromium/terms.html22:31
mconnorgah, stupid terminal22:31
mconnorbut, aiui, if you give google a perpetual and irrevocable license to use your code and sublicense etc, that means they can do whatever they want22:32
mconnorits not "subject to terms of the code license"22:32
mconnorfrom my reading, that agreement gives Google carte blanche to take anything you commit to their repo and do anything they want under any license they want22:35
ftai'll ask :)22:41
fta<DannyB> The CLA certainly grants google the right to license it however we want22:46
fta<DannyB> note however, our CLA is identical to apache's CLA, mysql's CLA, etc22:46
fta<DannyB> It's not like we are being different here22:46
fta<DannyB> You also retain copyright, so even if we did do something you didn't like, you culd still release and use the code however you wanted22:46
ftamconnor, ^^ from the lawyer22:47
mconnorfta: yeah, all makes sense22:49
mconnorI just don't like it22:49
* mconnor takes another stab at looking at patches23:04
* mconnor wishes he had some whiskey for this23:05
