Are you also packaging the server? Because if so, I guess you'd also like me to fix https://github.com/etesync/journal-manager ?

I'd like you to fix all sloppy licensing issues you know of, globally :-)

...but yes, addressing journal-manager first is nice, because you guessed right: I am packaging the server for Debian as well.

I'm actually against license headers in code in general, and usually I push back, but I know Debian are a bit specific about these things, and so I'd rather just comply for things that get packaged for that.

I had a long discussion about it last week at FOSDEM. :P

Anyhow, everything that's relevant is now fixed. P.S, I sent you an email regarding the packaging, please take a look when you have a moment.

I am sorry if my reported issues has given (or confirmed) an impression that Debian mandates a certain style of stating copyright and licensing. What I meant to say was only that (in my work of preparing packaging for Debian) I noticed uncertainties and would encourage clarifying those. While I do think that license headers in code makes great sense, it is not a requirement for inclusion in Debian: Debian requires freely licensed code, but that is possible in multiple ways. You can even totally omit mentions of copyright and licensing in the whole project, and just explain to me in casual english what that information is - e.g. in an email - and I could then include with the Debian package a copy of that email from you as proof of the copyright and licensing which applies for that code project.

Oh, I guess I misremembered from my previous interactions with Debian. I was thinking specifically at https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/

Anyhow, doesn't matter, I added the licensing headers now for these, so we should be good. :)

Did you see my email now? If not, could you maybe email me at my first name at etesync.com?
