From 5a8a1a8baf4f62a27f6052085514f5399ebec89d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bill Sacks Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2020 11:49:43 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] Remove Copyright file MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Discussion from https://github.com/ESCOMP/CTSM/issues/997: I noticed that we have an old "Copyright" file at the top level of the repository, that is both out of date and incorrect – critically, using the legally incorrect term, "public domain". I recently updated this file in CESM: ESCOMP/CESM#141 However, I'd suggest that we simply remove this file from CTSM. It's not clear to me that we really need to maintain this file, since other code isn't included in our repository but rather downloaded separately via manage_externals, and I think it's confusing to have separate LICENSE and COPYRIGHT files. However, we may want to have a note in the LICENSE file saying that this license only applies to the code in this repository, and that externals obtained via manage_externals have their own licenses. --- Copyright | 75 ------------------------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 75 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 Copyright diff --git a/Copyright b/Copyright deleted file mode 100644 index 21b9688874..0000000000 --- a/Copyright +++ /dev/null @@ -1,75 +0,0 @@ -CESM1.5: Copyright Notice and Disclaimer - -The Community Earth System Model (CESM was developed in cooperation with -the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy, -the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and -the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research National Center for Atmospheric Research. - -Except for the segregable components listed below, CESM is public domain software. -There may be other third party tools and libraries that are embedded, and -they may have their own copyright notices and terms. - -The following components are copyrighted and may only be used, modified, -or redistributed under the terms indicated below. - -Code Institution Copyright Terms of Use/Disclaimer ----- ----------- --------- ----------------------- -ESMF University of Copyright University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License - Illinois/NCSA 2002-2009, - University of - Illinois/NCSA - Open Source - License - -POP,SCRIP,CICE Los Alamos National Copyright 2008 Los Alamos National Security, LLC - Laboratory Los Alamos - National - Security, LLC - -CISM NCAR/LANL/ORNL/SNL/ Copyright GNU Lesser General Public License v. 3 - LBNL/NYU/U.
