Brainpool Curves in Fedora (openssl, libgcrypt, gnupg)
by Timothée Ravier 06 Apr '22

06 Apr '22

Hi everyone, The ECC Brainpool Curves [1][2] are currently not available in Fedora as according to this BZ [3], this needs Fedora Legal approval. Could someone from the legal team take a look to see if there are any blockers regarding Brainpool Curves inclusion in Fedora? Thanks!

The FPCA’s “Moral Rights Clause Waiver” should be updated for CC BY-SA 4.0
by Jason Yundt 18 Oct '21

18 Oct '21

Hello, In the FCPA <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Fedora_Project_Contributor_Agreement#F…>, The definition for “Moral Rights Clause Waiver” references “Section 4d of CC-BY-SA”, but that subsection doesn’t exist <https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode#s4>. Also, the Other FAQs <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Fedora_Project_Contributor_Agreement#O…>’s first two questions still refer to CC BY-SA 3.0 even though the FCPA has been updated to use CC BY-SA 4.0.

Self Introduction: Jilayne Lovejoy
by Jilayne Lovejoy 21 Sep '21

Hi packaging and legal lists, I saw a recent self introduction here and thought I ought to do that same! I'm a lawyer who's worked in open source for some time and interested in helping more on the legal side related to licenses and processes around that. I joined Red Hat Legal in February. I've been a lurker on the legal list for years, but I thought it'd be good to introduce myself to the packaging group as well since license topics can intersect. I've also been a co-lead on the SPDX legal team since the project's inception, and would be happy to chat about that with anyone who is interested. Cheers, Jilayne
