75465 | 5 NOTES ON COPYRIGHTS AND LICENSES |
6 | |
7 Some terminology: | |
8 | |
9 A "copyright notice" consists of one or a few lines of this format: | |
10 "Copyright (C) 2006, 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc." | |
11 | |
12 A "license notice" is a statement of permissions, and is usually much | |
13 longer, eg the text "GNU Emacs is free software...". | |
14 | |
15 | |
75967 | 16 Summary for the impatient: |
17 | |
76329 | 18 1. Don't add code to Emacs written by someone other than yourself |
76330 | 19 without thinking about the legal aspect. Even if the changes are |
20 trivial, consider if they combine with previous changes by the same | |
21 author to make a non-trivial total. If so, make sure they have an | |
22 assignment. If adding a whole file adjust the copyright statements in | |
23 the file. | |
75967 | 24 |
76330 | 25 2. When installing code written by someone else, the ChangeLog entry |
26 should be in the name of the author of the code, not the person who | |

75967 | 32 containing the image. |
33 | |

75967 | 35 legal notices, consider if you should add a copyright statement. |
36 | |
76329 | 37 5. Please don't just add an FSF copyright without checking that is the |
76194 | 38 right thing to do. |

41 Every non-trivial file distributed through the Emacs repository should be |
75465 | 42 self-explanatory in terms of copyright and license. This includes |
43 files that are not distributed in Emacs releases (for example, the | |

44 admin/ directory), because the whole Emacs repository is publicly |
75465 | 45 available. |
46 | |
47 The definition of triviality is a little vague, but a rule of thumb is | |
48 that any file with less than 15 lines of actual content is trivial. If | |
49 a file is auto-generated (eg ldefs-boot.el) from another one in the | |

51 statement to the generated file. |
75465 | 52 |
76011 | 53 Legal advice says that we could, if we wished, put a license notice |
54 even in trivial files, because copyright law in general looks at the | |
55 overall work as a whole. It is not _necessary_ to do so, and rms | |
56 prefers that we do not. This means one needs to take care that trivial | |
57 files do not grow and become non-trivial without having a license | |
58 added. NB consequently, if you add a lot of text to a small file, | |
59 consider whether your changes have made the file worthy of a copyright | |
60 notice, and if so, please add one. | |
75911 | 61 |
76213 | 62 It can be helpful to put a reminder comment at the start of a trivial |
63 file, eg: "add a license notice if this grows to > 10 lines of code". | |
64 | |
75465 | 65 The years in the copyright notice should be updated every year (see |
100973 | 66 file "years" in this directory). The PDF versions of refcards etc |
75465 | 67 should display copyright notices (an exception to the rule about |
68 "generated" files), but these can just display the latest year. The | |
69 full list of years should be kept in comments in the source file. If | |

71 version when the tex files are updated. |
75465 | 72 |
73 Copyright changes should be propagated to any associated repositories | |
74 (eg Gnus, MH-E), but I think in every case this happens automatically | |
75 (?). | |
76 | |
75776 | 77 All README (and other such text files) that are non-trivial should |
78 contain copyright statements and GPL license notices, exactly as .el | |
75934 | 79 files do (see e.g. README in the top-level directory). Before 2007, |
75776 | 80 we used a simple, short statement permitting copying and modification |
81 provided legal notices were retained. In Feb 2007 we switched to the | |
75934 | 82 standard GPL text, on legal advice. Some older text files in etc/ |
83 should, however, keep their current licenses (see below for list). | |
75465 | 84 |
75776 | 85 For image files, the copyright and license details should be recorded |
86 in a README file in each directory with images. (Legal advice says | |
87 that we need not add notices to each image file individually, if they | |
75865 | 88 allow for that.). It is recommended to use the word "convert" to |
89 describe the automatic process of changing an image from one format to | |
90 another (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-02/msg00618.html). | |
91 | |
75465 | 92 |
93 When installing a file with an "unusual" license (after checking first | |
94 it is ok), put a copy of the copyright and license in the file (if | |
95 possible. It's ok if this makes the file incompatible with its | |
96 original format, if it can still be used by Emacs), or in a README | |
97 file in the relevant directory. | |
98 | |
99 The vast majority of files are copyright FSF and distributed under the | |
100 GPL. A few files (mainly related to language and charset support) are | |
101 copyright AIST alone, or both AIST and FSF. (Contact Kenichi Handa | |
102 with questions about legal issues in such files.) In all these cases, | |
103 the copyright years in each file should be updated each year. | |
104 | |
105 There are some exceptions to the points in the previous paragraph, and | |
106 these are listed below for reference, together with any files where | |
107 the copyright needs to be updated in "unusual" ways. | |
108 | |
109 If you find any other such cases, please consult to check they are ok, | |
110 and note them in this file. This includes missing copyright notices, | |
111 and "odd" copyright holders. In most cases, individual authors should | |
112 not appear in copyright statements. Either the copyright has been | |
113 assigned (check copyright.list) to the FSF (in which case the original | |
114 author should be removed and the year(s) transferred to the FSF); or | |
115 else it is possible the file should not be in Emacs at all (please | |
116 report!). | |

118 Note that it seems painfully clear that one cannot rely on commit logs, |
75791 | 119 or even ChangeLogs, for older changes. People often installed changes |
120 from others, without recording the true authorship. | |

200 Until 2007 etags.c was described as being copyright FSF and Ken Arnold. | |
201 After some investigation in Feb 2007, then to the best of our | |
202 knowledge we believe that the original 1984 Emacs version was based | |
203 on the version in BSD4.2. See for example this 1985 post from Ken Arnold: | |
204 <http://groups.google.com/group/mod.sources/browse_thread/thread/ffe5c55845a640a9> | |
205 I have received enough requests for the current source to ctags | |
206 to post it. Here is the latest version (what will go out with | |
207 4.3, modulo any bugs fixed during the beta period). It is the | |
208 4.2 ctags with recognition of yacc and lex tags added. | |
209 | |
210 See also a 1984 version of ctags (no copyright) posted to net.sources: | |
211 <http://groups.google.com/group/net.sources/msg/a21b6c21be12a98d> | |
212 Version of etags.c in emacs-16.56 duplicates comment typos. | |
213 | |
214 Accordingly, in Feb 2007 we added a 1984 copyright for the | |
215 University of California and a revised BSD license. The terms of | |
216 this require that the full license details be available in binary | |
76243 | 217 distributions - hence the file etc/ETAGS.README. The fact that the |
218 --version output just says "Copyright <year> FSF" is apparently OK | |
219 from a legal point of view. | |

75991 | 242 lwlib/ |
243 rms (2007/02/17): "lwlib is not assigned to the FSF; we don't consider | |
244 it part of Emacs. [...] Therefore non-FSF copyrights are ok in lwlib." | |
245 | |
76246 | 246 NB don't change the GPL version used for lwlib .c and .h files (see |
247 below). | |
248 | |
76194 | 249 FSF copyrights should only appear in files which have undergone |
250 non-trivial cumulative changes from the original versions in the Lucid | |
251 Widget Library. NB this means that if you make non-trivial changes to | |
252 a file with no FSF copyright, you should add one. Also, if changes are | |
253 reverted to the extent that a file becomes basically the same as the | |
254 original version, the FSF copyright should be removed. | |
255 | |
256 In my (rgm) opinion, as of Feb 2007, all the non-trivial files differ | |
257 significantly from the original versions, with the exception of | |
258 lwlib-Xm.h. Most of the changes that were made to this file have | |
259 subsequently been reverted. Therefore I removed the FSF copyright from | |
260 this file (which is arguably too trivial to merit a notice anyway). I | |
261 added FSF copyright to the following files which did not have them | |
262 already: Makefile.in, lwlib-Xaw.c, lwlib-int.h (borderline), | |
263 lwlib-utils.c (borderline), lwlib.c, lwlib.h. | |
264 | |
265 Copyright years before the advent of public CVS in 2001 were those | |
266 when I judged (from the CVS logs) that non-trivial amounts of change | |
267 had taken place. I also adjusted the existing FSF years in xlwmenu.c, | |
268 xlwmenu.h, and xlwmenuP.h on the same basis. | |
269 | |
270 Note that until Feb 2007, the following files in lwlib were lacking | |
271 notices: lwlib-int.h, lwlib.h, lwlib-Xaw.h, lwlib-Xlw.h, lwlib-utils.h | |
272 | |
273 The following files did not list a Lucid copyright: xlwmenu.h, | |
274 xlwmenuP.h. | |
275 | |
276 To the best of our knowledge, all the code files in lwlib were | |
277 originally part of the Lucid Widget Library, even if they did not say | |
278 so explicitly. For example, they were all present in Lucid Emacs 19.1 | |
279 in 1992. The exceptions are the two Xaw files, which did not appear | |
280 till Lucid Emacs 19.9 in 1994. The file lwlib-Xaw.h is too trivial to | |
281 merit a copyright notice, but would presumably have the same one as | |
282 lwlib-Xaw.c. We have been unable to find a true standalone version of | |
283 LWL, if there was such a thing, to check definitively. | |
284 | |
285 To clarify the situation, in Feb 2007 we added Lucid copyrights and | |
286 GPL notices to those files lacking either that were non-trivial, | |
287 namely: lwlib-int.h, lwlib.h, xlwmenu.h, xlwmenuP.h. This represents | |
288 our best understanding of the legal status of these files. We also | |
289 clarified the notices in Makefile.in, which was originally the | |
290 Makefile auto-generated from Lucid's Imakefile. | |
291 | |
292 As of Feb 2007, the following files are considered too trivial for | |
293 notices: lwlib-Xaw.h, lwlib-Xlw.h, lwlib-utils.h. | |
294 | |
76246 | 295 The version of lwlib/ first installed in Emacs seems to be the same as |
296 that used in Lucid Emacs 19.8 (released 6-sep-93); except the two Xaw | |
297 files, which did not appear till Athena support was added in Lucid | |
298 Emacs 19.9. In Lucid Emacs 19.1, all files were under GPLv1 or later, | |
299 but by Lucid Emacs 19.8, lwlib.c and xlwmenu.c had been switched to v2 | |
300 or later. These are the versions that were first installed in Emacs. | |
301 So in GNU Emacs, these two files have been under v2 or later since | |
302 1994. | |
76194 | 303 |
76246 | 304 It seems that it was the intention of Lucid to use v1 or later |
305 (excepting the two files mentioned previously); so this is the license | |
306 we have used when adding notices to code that did not have notices | |
307 originally. Although we have the legal right to switch to v2 or later, | |
308 rms prefers that we do not do so. | |

330 these files. | |

334 Keep the "copyright.h" method used by X11, rather than moving the | |
335 licenses into the files. Note that the original X10.h did not use | |
336 copyright.h, but had an explicit notice, which we retain. | |
337 | |
338 If you make non-trivial changes to a file which does not have an FSF | |
339 notice, add one and a GPL notice (as per Activate.c). If changes to a | |
340 file are reverted such that it becomes essentially the same as the | |
341 original X11 version, remove the FSF notice and GPL. | |
342 | |
343 Only the files which differ significantly from the original X11 | |
344 versions should have FSF copyright and GPL notices. At time of writing | |
345 (Feb 2007), this is: Activate.c, Create.c, Internal.c. I (rgm) | |
346 established this by diff'ing the current files against those in X11R1, | |
347 and when I found significant differences looking in the ChangeLog for | |
348 the years they originated (the CVS logs are truncated before 1999). I | |
349 therefore removed the FSF notices (added in 200x) from the other | |
350 files. There are some borderline cases IMO: AddSel.c, InsSel.c, | |
351 XMakeAssoc.c, XMenu.h. For these I erred on the side of NOT adding FSF | |
352 notices. | |
353 | |
354 With regards to whether the files we have changed should have GPL | |
355 added or not, rms says (2007-02-25, "oldXmenu issues"): | |
356 | |
357 It does not make much difference, because oldXmenu is obsolete | |
358 except for use in Emacs (and it is not normally used in Emacs any | |
359 more either). | |
360 | |
361 So, to make things simple, please put our changes under the GPL. | |
362 | |
363 insque.c had no copyright notice until 2005. The version of insque.c | |
364 added to Emacs 1992-01-27 is essentially the same as insremque.c added | |
365 to glic three days later by Roland McGrath, with an FSF copyright and | |
366 GPL, but no ChangeLog entry: | |
367 <http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/libc/misc/insremque.c?\ | |
368 rev=1.1&cvsroot=glibc> | |
369 To the best of his recollection, McGrath (who has a copyright | |
370 assignment) was the author of this file (email from roland at frob.com | |
371 to rms, 2007-02-23, "Where did insque.c come from?"). The FSF | |
372 copyright and GPL in this file are therefore correct as far as we | |
373 understand it. | |
374 | |
375 Imakefile had no legal info in Feb 2007, but was obviously based on | |
376 the X11 version (which also had no explicit legal info). As it was | |
377 unused, I removed it. It would have the same MIT copyright as | |
378 Makefile.in does now. | |

409 | |
410 I don't remember writing it, but it reads like my prose and I believe | |
411 I wrote the feature(s) it's describing. So I would have been the | |
412 likeliest person to write it. | |
413 | |
414 Odds are that I did, but I'm not certain. | |
415 | |
416 Accordingly, FSF copyright was added. | |

463 On legal advice from Matt Norwood, the following comment was added | |
76431 | 464 to these files in Feb/Mar 2007: |
75946 | 465 |
466 The code here is forced by the interface, and is not subject to | |
467 copyright, constituting the only possible expression of the | |
468 algorithm in this format. | |
469 | |
470 With the addition of this notice, these files are OK for the | |
471 upcoming Emacs-22 release. Post-release, we can revisit this issue | |
472 and possibly add a list of all authors who have changed these files. | |
473 (details in email from Matt Norwood to rms, 2007/02/03). | |
474 | |
76461 | 475 etc/ms-7bkermit |
476 Says it was written by Andy Lowry and Joel Spolsky. No entry for | |
477 either in copyright.list. NB this file is not "constrained" like | |
478 ms-kermit (rms: "We know it isn't. A comment at the front says it has | |
479 other bindings which might be handy."). File removed March 2007. | |

493 netbsd.h, sol2-3.h, usg5-4-2.h |
75946 | 494 - all these (not obviously trivial) files were missing copyrights |
495 till Feb 2007, when FSF copyright was added. Matt Norwood advised: | |
496 | |
497 For now, I think the best policy is to assume that we do have | |
498 assignments from the authors (I recall many of these header files | |
499 as having been originally written by rms), and to attach an FSF | |
500 copyright with GPL notice. We can amend this if and when we | |
501 complete the code audit. Any additions to these files by | |
502 non-assigned authors are arguably "de minimis" contributions to | |
503 Emacs: small changes or suggestions to a work that are subsumed in | |
504 the main authors' copyright in the entire work. | |
505 | |
506 Here is my (rgm) take on the details of the above files: | |
507 | |
508 mips4.h | |
509 might be trivial? started trivial, been added to in tiny changes by | |
510 those with FSF assignment, often result of email suggestions by others. | |
511 | |
512 news-risc.h | |
513 started trivial. Grown by tiny additions, plus chunk | |
514 from mips.h, which was and is Copyright FSF | |
515 | |
516 pmax.h | |
517 started trivial. grown in tiny changes, except for maybe Jim Wilson's | |
518 comment. | |
519 | |
520 ? irix4-0.h | |
521 I would say started non-trivial (1992, rms). only tiny changes since | |
522 installed. | |
523 | |
524 ? irix5-0.h | |
525 I would say started non-trivial (1993, jimb, heavily based | |
526 on irix4-0.h). A few borderline non-tiny changes since. | |
527 | |
528 usg5-4-2.h | |
529 started non-trivial, but was heavily based on usg5-4.h, which was and is | |
530 copyright FSF. only tiny changes since installed. | |
531 | |
532 sol2-3.h | |
533 started trivial. only non-tiny change (1994) incorporated code from | |
534 usg5-4.h, which was and is copyright FSF. | |
