henrik__I will be using a cc license with my framework, but I have an application that I really need closed down tight. I´ve hired an additional developer, so I need some kind of insurance that he does´nt leek or use the code elsewhere. Anyone know what to do?08:43
henrik__I don´t think he will :) but I would just like to have it on paper08:44
paulproteushenrik__, I don't really understand what you're talking about.08:45
paulproteusPlus I'm going to go to bed.08:45
paulproteusBut I'll be awake in 8-9h.08:45

hdworakhi09:19
hdworakI'm doing $ paster serve --reload development.ini09:20
hdworakthen I'm modifying some templates, I hit "refresh" in a browser - and old content is preserved09:20
hdworakany idea of what's going on? (no, it's no browser cache)09:20
hdworak:)09:21
hdworakhenrik__: why do you use cc license for software?09:21
paulproteushdworak, templates aren't reloaded automatically; kill and restart the paster09:24
hdworakI've tried, same result09:25
hdworakI turn the app down, I get "No connection to host" in the browser, I start the server again, same old content09:25
hdworakit seems to me like it's using some kind of an egg from a build or something09:26
hdworakI remove a template, kill, run again, the content is still there09:27
hdworak:)09:27
paulproteushdworak, Look for *.pyc files in the template dir.09:28
paulproteusNuke them instead.09:28
paulproteusBut bedtime now.09:28

hdworakif we drop cc.license, libvalidator basically would require only pyRdfa and rdflib (since html5lib is required by pyRdfa)14:13
hdworakvalidator is just a Web interface to libvalidator - right now it seems to me that Pylons+Genhi+SQLAlchemy is an overkill14:14
hdworakthat, and 343 MB from license.rdf and we end up with 438 MB for validator + its dependencies14:15
hdworakpaulproteus: how about mod_wsgi+rdflib+pyRdfa for the whole Web application?14:16
hdworakrdflib is also required by pyRdfa14:17
hdworakso we would end up with mod_wsgi and pyRdfa as only first-level dependencies, html5lib and rdflib being the second-level dependencies14:19
hdworakhtml5lib+pyRdfa+rdflib eggs are approx. 941 kB in total14:20
*** mlinksva has joined #cc15:07
hdworakok, the reason for caching was the existence of ~/.python/lib/python2.5/site-packages/validator-0.0.0dev-py2.5.egg - once that file was deleted, the contents of the Web application refreshes gracefully15:23

hdworaknathany: hi. sorry to e-mail you about the internship on your private e-mail (I've looked it up in your CV)15:45
nathanyhdworak: no problem!15:45
nathanyi barely noticed since there's lots of cross over :)15:45
nathanysorry we couldn't accomodate your schedule :(15:46
hdworak= no reason to submit the app?15:46
nathanyit sounds like your schedule is pretty firm (ie, unable to begin until mid july) so it's probably not worth your time15:47
nathanythat said, if something changes here i'll be sure to let you know right away15:47
hdworakis cc applying for GSoC this year (should be done March 9-13)?15:47
nathanyyup, I hope we'll be participating15:48
hdworakwell, maybe I'll fix my schedule next year and apply then15:48
hdworakthank you for making things clear15:49
nathanysure, no problem15:50
hdworakGSoC is also adjusted to an American academic year, but fortunately, the work is remote :)15:50
hdworakoh, I've just received your mail15:51

paulproteusAsk nathany (I'm still on the phone)18:41
nathanyhdworak: sphinx18:41
hdworakok, thnx, and do you have any code formatting guidelines? like indent size etc. (Python again)18:43
nathanyhdworak: not in particular; I tend to like whatever emacs python-mode does by default (indent of 4, i believe)18:44

HattmannenHi! A question: If I decide to release an application under a CC license (as opposed to GPL or some similar software license), do I need to make the source avalible?21:10
paulproteusHattmannen, CC licenses are not recommended for software.21:10
paulproteusWhy would you do that?21:10
robmyersit depends on the format of the application. and what paulproteus said.21:11
HattmannenWell, why not? It's really simple and pretty much says what terms I want my applications to be released under.21:11
paulproteusWhich license, out of curiosity?21:11
paulproteusThe tragedy is your program wouldn't be compatible with the bulk of Free Software/open source programs, and if it's non-free couldn't be put into Ubuntu, Debian, or Fedora (or other distributions that emphasize software freedom).21:12
HattmannenCC by-nc-sa 3.021:12
HattmannenAh.21:12
robmyerserk21:12
robmyersnc is not free software or open source21:13
HattmannenSo what would you recomend?21:13
* ianweller recommends the GPL.21:13
mattlyeah, GNU GPLv3 would be the closest thing to CC-BY-SA 3.0 for software.21:14
robmyersthe GPL is the gold standard for free software21:14
HattmannenI've thought about the GPL. But doesn't the GPL imply that I have to release the source, as do anyone who wants to use my code for something else?21:14
ianwellerwell, yeah. that's what makes it free software21:14
robmyersand in theory it will prevent commercial competition by reducing the cost of competing software close to zero21:14
HattmannenWhat I want is pretty much a license that says: 1. Anyone may use my software as they please, but not for commercial purposes.21:15
Hattmannen2. If they make a derivative of it, I want to be credited for what they've taken from my software.21:16
robmyersthe gpl maintains credits in source21:16
robmyersbut why do you wish to preclude commercial use?21:17
ianweller"but not for commerical purposes" <-- good luck21:17
Hattmannenrobmyers: True. I just don't want anyone using my code to be required to release their code.21:17
mattlHattmannen: so why not for commercial purposes?21:17
ianweller"I just don't want anyone using my code to be required to release their code." -- then that's not sharealike and you want the BSD license, iirc21:18
HattmannenBeacuse I feel that if anyone use something I released for free (as in beer), they ought to do the same thing. If they don't want to do that, there will surely be many other alternatives to use.21:19
robmyershattmannen ok then use the LGPL21:19
Hattmannenianweller: Oh. Thanks.21:19
robmyersthat doesn't require disclosure of code that uses your code unless it statically links it21:19
ianwelleror LGPL yeah21:20
robmyershattmannen but the GPL specifically requires that people who use your code release their code with the same freedoms21:20
robmyersso if you want users of your code to return the favor, that's the GPL21:20
robmyersif you want them to not have to, that's the LGPL or (and I don't recommend it) BSD21:21
Hattmannenrobmyers: Ok. I'll take a look at the BSD license as well.21:21
* ianweller accidentally recommended bsd hehe21:21
HattmannenSo I should take a look at the LGPL then.21:21
ianwelleryeah.21:21
HattmannenThanks alot. Hope I didn't seem too daft.21:21
ianweller:)21:22
robmyershattmannen do please consider the gpl. it's cool ;-)21:22
paulproteusHattmannen, I'm glad you swung by and asked!21:23
Hattmannenrobmyers: I would probably generally go with the GPL, but in this case it's just some quickly hacked-together stuff, and I wouldn't want anyone else to look bad because of my code.21:24
ianwellerHattmannen: oh but that's why free software exists. so others can improve it, and give it back to you :)21:24
robmyersyeah, let people build on your work21:25
robmyersit's good for you and good for them21:25
Hattmannenianweller: Exactly. I just don't feel like cleaning up my code. ;-)21:25
robmyerssure, so release it and let the hive mind improve it ;-)21:25
ianwelleri always release crappy code. mainly cuz i can't code21:26
HattmannenI'm working on an ID3 tagging application. That will be released under the GPL when it's done.21:26
HattmannenThanks for your help! I'll go with the LGPL for my ugly-hacks(tm). ;-)21:30
robmyersNOOOOOOOOO! ;-)21:31
paulproteusYay! LGPL is compatible with most of the world's Free Software! (And robmyers is a GPL lover but secretly likes the LGPL too.)21:32
mattlianweller: how do i install python2.3 on your hippy OS.21:32
ianwellermattl: uhhhhhhhhhhhh.21:32
robmyersheh21:32
ianwelleri think we have compat packages for 2.4 but not 2.321:33
ianwellerwe're too new for that21:33

ianwellergregdek wanted me to originally package some zope plugins for fedora but that failed after i learned that ummm dependencies and incompatabilities were not fun21:34
