Re: [automotive-pmc] PMC notification - new project proposal Eclipse Hir

[Eclipse Management Office EMO <emo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Andreas,

This is a good question -- I asked it myself. 

To my understanding, the project develops an extension to systemd, which is under the GPLv2. Hence the constraint. 

Then my assumption is that for most projects, using Hirte on top of systemd should not be an issue, since most of the system tools are already under the GPLv2.

That said, if needed we might just ask Jefro (the submitter of the proposal) and have this discussion publicly on the ticket.

HTH,

May I ask a question, why is GPLv2 used, because the usage will make some problems for some companies…

 

Thx!

Betreff: [automotive-pmc] PMC notification - new project proposal Eclipse Hirte

 

Dear PMC,

 

Please respond to this message with a +1 if you're prepared to take on responsibility for overseeing the governance of this/these new project(s)

Proposal link: https://projects.eclipse.org/reviews/eclipse-hirte-creation-review

Ticket link: https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipsefdn/emo-team/emo/-/issues/541

Project Description: Eclipse Hirte is a simple extension to systemd that allows management of services across multiple nodes. It relies on systemd services as an abstraction layer, thus being agnostic to how the process is run by systemd ("classic" application or containerized application, or anything else…).

 

Thank you!
