Le revoici, Il n'y a pas eu beaucoup de commentaires ni de suggestions sur la
dernière version, je pense donc que nous nous rapprochons de la proposition
formelle de modification. Veuillez noter que nous avons supprimé les clauses
qui demandent que le copyright soit affiché pendant l'exécution. Cela n'affecte
pas la version 2 de la GPL. Y a-t-il des licences ou des paquets que cela
touche réellement ?
Nous vous rappelons que les parties entre <crochets> seront supprimées de
la version finale. Nous ne les avons incluses que comme commentaires sur cette
version de travail.
Il est possible qu'il y ait toujours des problèmes, voire des fautes
d'orthographe. Comme on dit, publiez tôt, publiez souvent.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Introduction
----------------
The Debian Free Software Guidelines define what it means for software
to be free as far as the Debian project is concerned. Software that
follows these guidelines is termed "DFSG-free".
These guidelines are separated into two sections: a list of freedoms
we require of DFSG-free software and a list of restrictions on those
freedoms that we are willing to accept.
1.1. Application
----------------
These guidelines are intended to be applied to software programs, that
is, machine-readable programs that instruct a computer how to perform
specific tasks, its source code, and any other items included with the
original source distribution.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Requirements
----------------
2.1. Use
---------
Anyone must be able to use the software in any way without paying a
fee or royalty or performing special actions.
<I think this line would prohibit "button-ware.">
<Not specifically part of the old DFSG>
<This does not prohibit the author from asking for donations as long
as the donations are completely voluntary.>
2.2. Source Code
-----------------
Source code must be freely available.
<Old DFSG point 2>
2.3. Distribution
------------------
Anyone must be able to give away or sell copies of the executables and
sources without paying a fee or royalty. However, nobody can be
required to distribute the software.
<Old DFSG point 1. Also part of Old DFSG point 5 & 6 unless you think
the DFSG needs a phrase like "does not discriminate" instead of
"anyone". Point 8 could also be part of this but this phrase would
cover more than just Debian. For example, under the old DFSG, software
could bar Red Hat from distributing it and still be DFSG (at least as
far as point 8.)>
<The license may not make any restrictions on who redistributes the
software or how that work is redistributed.>
2.4. Modified and Derived Software
-----------------------------------
Anyone must be able to use and distribute the software (source or
executables) with modifications and anyone must be able to distribute
software that uses parts of the licensed source.
<part of old DFSG point 3 and part of point 7>
2.5. Termination of License
----------------------------
The license must remain valid until the licensee terminates it or
violates the terms of the license
<Not part of the old DFSG>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Restrictions
----------------
3.1. Notices of Authorship
---------------------------
The license may require the copyright, license, and any associated
disclaimers be prominently displayed in the modified software or any
derived software. The license may require such notices to be
displayed: (in order of preference)
* wherever the modified/derived software displays copyrights
* in the source code or documentation
* in advertising materials (deprecated)
<Not part of the old DFSG>
<during execution of the software -- removed. Will this affect any
current licenses?>
3.2. Misrepresentation of Authors
----------------------------------
The license may restrict the use of names and trademarks of the
copyright holders in association with modifications of the original
software.
<Not part of the old DFSG>
<It can restrict the unauthorized use of the names and trademarks of
the copyright holders even to promote something derived from the
original software>
3.3. License of Derived Works
------------------------------
The license can require modified and derived software be distributed
under the same license or the general requirement "any compatible
license."
The license may also require the license of modified and derived
software be restricted to the same license or to any license that
meets these software has the choice of license as long as they meet
these guidelines.
<Also part of old DFSG point 7>
The license can impose license restrictions on the third party
software (such as libraries) necessary to compile the software as long
as the restrictions are compatible with the original license.
The license my not impose restrictions on third-party software that
merely resides on the same system or distribution as the licensed
software.
3.4. Restrictions on charges (deprecated)
------------------------------------------
The license can restrict the amount charged for the software if
reasonable distribution fees are allowed. It may not place
restrictions on either fees charged for other software in a
distribution or the cost of a distribution as a whole.
3.5. Availability of source code
---------------------------------
The license may require that distributors make a reasonable effort to
provide source code to versions of the software they distribute.
<Not specifically part of the old DFSG>
3.6. Integrity of the Original Work
------------------------------------
The license may use any of the following methods to ensure the
integrity of the original work:
<Old DFSG point 4>
3.6.1. Change log
------------------
A summary of modifications made to the software may be required in:
* the source code of the modified software.
* documentation accompanying the modified software.
<I removed this. Is there any license that requires this that we want
to remain DFSG-free? "the display when the software is executed (for
interactive programs)">
<Is there anywhere else they could be summarized that we'd accept?>
3.6.2. Versioning and Renaming
-------------------------------
Modified software may be required to use a version number or name
different than the official release.
3.6.3. Concurrent Installation (deprecated)
--------------------------------------------
Modified software may be required to be able to exist on the same
system as the official release of the software.
<For example by requiring derived works to use different names for
configuration files and data files as well as executables.>
3.6.4. Original source (deprecated)
------------------------------------
Distribution of modified software may be required to be accompanied by
an offer to distribute the original source code.
3.6.5. Patch clause (deprecated)
---------------------------------
Source level modifications may be required to be distributed as the
original source with a list of differences.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Notes <This section, "Notes" is an explanation section to help clarify
the above document. It should not contain anything that's not above and the
document above should be able to stand on it's own without the "notes"
section>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.1. Deprecated
----------------
By deprecated, we mean this is allowed but discourage and disliked.
These items may be done away with in future versions. Also, software
without deprecated clauses is recommended over software that has
licenses with such clauses.
4.2. Non-binding Requests
--------------------------
The license may make any number of non-binding requests. These should
be clearly separated from the binding section of the license.
4.3. Weaker Restrictions
-------------------------
The license may make weaker restrictions than the above.
4.4. Source Code
-----------------
These guidelines use the term source code to refer to the preferred
form of the work for making modifications to it.
<These guidelines use the term "source code" in the same way as does
the GNU General Public License version 2: the source code for a work
means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it.>
4.5. Example Licenses
----------------------
As examples, we consider the following licenses DFSG-free:
* the MIT/X Consortium License
* the Artistic License
* the GNU General Public License (GPL)
* the GNU Library General Public License (LGPL)
* the BSD License
* the Mozilla Public License (MPL)
* the Q Public License (QPL)
*gt;This list is a list of possibilities. Before the document would be
released, the list would be modified to mention the licenses that
truly do fit<

Il serait bien d'enfin finaliser cette licence au lieu de simplement étendre sa durée tous les deux mois. Il a aussi été fait mention de personnes souhaitant un logo différent. Je pense que nous devrions conserver notre logo actuel pour plusieurs raisons cependant : - c'est un bon logo : il est facilement reconnaissable, simple à dessiner, s'agrandit bien et est agréable à la fois en noir et blanc et en couleurs ; - choisir un nouveau logo prendra du temps : nous devrons rassembler les propositions, et voter pour chacune d'elle, etc. - j'aime bien le logo actuel :). Je propose que nous votions à la fois pour accepter ce logo et la licence actuelle.
