| PWF | hi | 20:20 |
| PWF | if I want to upload a commercial app in ubuntu store. what I have to give a license? | 20:23 |
| JanC | PWF: are you asking what license you should use? | 20:27 |
| JanC | or what you should put in some field in a form? | 20:27 |
| PWF | Yes. For example, if you use quickly, in the tutorial says to use "quickly license" to sign the files .. and they shall be signed by the text "gpl v 3 ..." and what license I should point if I want to assign to my app when the price of upload | 20:31 |
| PWF | I'm sorry bad english =( | 20:32 |
| PWF | JanC: which license should I use for my commercial app. probably a stupid question ) | 20:35 |
| zoopster | PWF: if you are creating a commercial app and do not want to reveal the source use Proprietary | 20:45 |
| JanC | you can use whatever license you want for proprietary apps | 20:46 |
| zoopster | PWF: if you are wanting the make the app open source under GPL v3 then you can simply use GNU GPL v3 as the license | 20:46 |
| JanC | but it's probably best to consult a lawyer for that ;) | 20:46 |
| JanC | (if you aren't sure) | 20:46 |
| zoopster | PWF: as JanC said...the license type is up to you and you'll want to consult a legal advisor for that decision. | 20:47 |
| JanC | some people might even want to use (A)GPL for commercial software (where the app itself is open source, but paying for it gives support options) | 20:48 |
| JanC | or the paid version might give access to extra online sources, or whatever | 20:50 |
| PWF | my application is completely written in python .. I can not hide the source code, but I did not want to do (the application is small and not significant). But I want to have a little reward for it. In the folder with the application files are python and they will be open (because python))) but the application must be commercial), I understand that it does not protect against the one who wants to pick it up and change, but I d | 20:52 |
| JanC | I suppose you could look at the licenses of other commercial software to get an idea (although they tend to be very long & complicated, maybe to much for your simple app) | 20:58 |
| JanC | basically you want something like: you are not allowed to make copies of this, except copies for personal use if you bought a license) | 20:59 |
| PWF | I'm not greedy, let it be open. I'm not sorry. but if it is under the gpl 3 is as I understand it right away, you may receive a fork and downloaded a free clone. | 21:04 |
| JanC | PWF: then use a non-open license | 21:14 |
| JanC | basically you want something like: "you are not allowed to make copies of this, except copies for personal use if you bought a license" ? | 21:14 |
| PWF | yes .. exactly .. it open source (because python), you can change it if you bought it, but you can not make a clone and upload in store as free | 21:17 |
| PWF | JanC: may be I can just write this instead of a license? )) "you can change it if you bought it, but you can not make a clone and upload in store as free" this app approved ? | 21:21 |
| JanC | PWF: I am not a lawyer, so I don't know abou the legal side, but as a honest user I would understand what your intention is, and I suppose that's most important? | 21:26 |
| JanC | and as zoopster said: that would qualify as a "proprietary license" | 21:27 |
| PWF | JanC: yes), thank you | 21:27 |
| reut | o | 23:25 |
