  5. Heyo License-Chooser, does anybody know the difference between EUPL and GPL licenses?

    I mostly don't really understand the license lingo, as English is not my mother tongue.

  6. Looking for non-EU citizens who chose the EUPL. It has many of the properties I'm looking for, and self-declares itself a global license, but I'm not sure. Am I being sensibly cautious or American exceptionalist?

  7. Thinking about licensing again. I'm torn between the MPL and EUPL. I'm mostly after an MPL that closes the SaaS loophole: use my crates and jars where you like, but if you improve my work, share alike. This sounds like the EUPL, except I can't so easily tell, less explain to a skittish corporate attorney, what triggers a "derived work."

    #Licensing #MPL #EUPL #Copyleft

  8. GitRoot is fully compliant with the FSFE's #reuse specification for its licensing.

    You can see the licenses for all packages (which are mostly EUPL) in our reuse.toml file here: https://gitroot.dev/worktree/REUSE.toml.html

    The full license texts are also included in the source code repository here: https://gitroot.dev/worktree/LICENSES/

    If in doubt, each file includes its license in the header.

    And if you're wondering why we chose the EUPL, I've actually written a documentation page to explain that exact decision! 🥰 https://gitroot.dev/doc/rationales/rationale_licence.html

    BTW: thanks @fsfe for providing reuse tool.

  10. The source code of the #LinkeXtractor (#LX) is available as #OpenSource under de #EUPL. The LinkeXtractor is a sophisticated legal reference parser, used for detecting and canonicalizing legal references (to #Dutch & #European case #law, Dutch #legislation and parliamentary documents and European law) in – mainly – court decisions published in the database of the Dutch judiciary.

  14. TIL there is a EUPL license (similar to GPLv3) which has been specifically aligned with EU-law. eupl.eu

    #eu #eupl #gpl #foss

  15. @gedankenstuecke @next there is the #EUPL which is compatible with the GPL, includes SaaS distributions, and most importantly it is consistent with the copyright laws across all EU member states, while most other licenses are apparently only written with the US legal system in mind. It is written by, and approved by the European Commission.

  16. I've decided to move all my projects from to .

    The transition for my digital garden (see profile) on @Codeberg Pages is almost done.
    Then I'll start with the software things.

    Any thoughts?

  17. @AAMfP @Mehrad @Lluis_Revilla @EUCommission
    It's of course intended as an anti-SaaS clause, and the big SaaS providers are of course aware, so in that sense it is quite deliberately done this way.
    Of course it affects eg. Hobbyists who just want to run a service on VPS in exactly the same way.
    IMO the #EUPL is a very double edged sword in that sense.

  18. @kkeijzer @dantalion

    Ik heb geen bezwaar tegen het gebruik van SMS. Heel cool dat de Duitse #overheid die app via #Flathub beschikbaar maakt: flathub.org/apps/de.bund.auswe

    De broncode zag is zo snel niet, maar inderdaad wel de #EUPL. Dat zou @Logius, de @belastingdienst of @opensource toch moeten kunnen forken en aanpassen voor gebruik met #digid?!

    Ik heb al een NFC-card-reader gekocht, omdat ik dacht dat ik daarmee kon inloggen bij digid, maar dat kan niet onder linux:

  19. that there is an OSI approved OpenSource license called "European Union Public Licence" (EUPL). Yes, in this case the "licence" is written with C and not S:

    commission.europa.eu/about/dep

    I was wondering if anyone have any argument against this license compared to GPLv2 and GPLv3.

    I am about to release a small CLI tool and am looking for a license for it.

    :boostRequest: Boosts are appreciated.

  20. Side notes: Chose #EUPL for the license and @Codeberg for its home.

  21. TIL: The European Union Public License.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European

    Looks pretty decent actually!

    • OSI and FSF approved
    • copyleft
    • SaaS clause (like the AGPL)
    • explicitly compatible with several copyleft licenses to allow EUPL code to be integrated into GPL, AGPL, LGPL, OSL, MPL etc. projects
    • based on European law
    • available in 23 languages, all with the same validity

    #EUPL #EuropeanUnion #software #license #FLOSS #OpenSource #licensing

  22. What's everyone's view on the compared to the ? I read thru it and my impression is that the EUPL achieves most of the same things as the GPL but with much less convoluted language, and written by EU lawyers rather than activists which instills confidence.

    This part feels a bit weird tho: "The Licensee must cause any Derivative Work to carry prominent notices stating that the Work has been modified and the date of modification." What's "prominent"?

  23. Speaking about what is happening in , but speaking also about , I and specifically European software people out there: what do you think about replacing with to give a general signal (and sort of software tariff, if you want) to USA government?

  24. Un an après sa parution, "Quand Cécile" (Le Seuil) va voyager un peu.

    Nous avons besoin, plus que jamais, d'un imaginaire européen susceptible de nous donner de l'espoir. Un imaginaire qui, parce qu'il chérit la diversité des cultures et des langues, et connait la valeur du bien commun, a pour but d'offrir bien plus que "les dividendes de la paix". C'est dire si je suis vraiment très heureux de figurer sur cette liste.

  25. What's the general opinion on #EUPL here? I license most of my own stuff #gpl (as I'm fairly confident it's enforceable in the EU as there are court cases backing this) but have been wondering if EUPL is a better choice as the GPL was written with the US legal system in mind and I'm not a US citizen, the EUPL seems to have backing by the European Commission which has more weight in my jurisdiction.

  26. Are there people here with opinions on the #EUPL (eupl.eu/)? Is this something good or should I stay away from it?

  27. I've been reading up on software licensing and discovered that #GPL virality is ineffective in the European Union: joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection

    This was a surprise, and therefore is by itself a good reason to use #EUPL for software in Europe. It is #copyleft (a.k.a. #sharealike) so your application or library is protected; but it isn't viral so people linking with your code -- even statically -- are free to use it commercially. Data is covered, too.
