What license, if any, should we put on our man pages?I think we can just use the standard Wireshark GPLv2+ header here, with copyright to Gerald and contributors.
Is the GPL an appropriate license for documentation, or would the GFDL be more appropriate? https://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html#FDL For what it's worth, the Bison man page on my machine has no license on it. I don't know whether any other GNU software that comes with a man page puts a license on the man page; perhaps they don't care enough about man pages, as opposed to Texinfo documents, to bother with a license. bison.texinfo is licensed under the GFDL: https://opensource.apple.com/source/bison/bison-14/doc/bison.texinfo ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
