juicemehi all o/23:05
peterleinchenjuiceme, hi juiceme \o23:06
juicemeyou managed to come though :)23:06
peterleinchenI amstill awake but not long I think23:06
juicemeya!23:07
juicemeabout the links to wiki page you mentioned earlier today23:09
juicemeI am fairly sure linking is allowed, and wasn't it about openrepos anyway?23:09
peterleinchen"fairly" sure23:10
peterleinchenI would like a sure only :)23:11
peterleinchenand no it was not about openrepos23:11
peterleinchenbut the mirrors for Nokia repositories23:11
juicemeokay, I thought it was as marmiz commented about that...?23:12
juicemeright23:12
peterleinchenmaybe misunderstanding (marmistrz meant repo mirrors)23:12
juicemeso how could we be absolutely sure, we'd need to consult an internet-aware IP lawyer.... where to get one?23:13
peterleinchenexactly!!!23:13
peterleinchenthis is something important to keep Maemo alive23:13
peterleinchenas flashing a device will stop you from installing dev mode on N9 and possibly even rootsh on N900 (not sure about that specific package, but there are other important bits in the official mirrors)Ã23:15
juicemewell there are ways to go around that but yes, the "easy way" to have developer mode is not available then23:17
peterleinchenwith "ways" you mean Jonny's way of setting up his own repo server and enable serial console ;)23:19
peterleinchenthat would be an option for one or two guys only :)23:19
peterleinchenand even then you will miss a lot olf dependencies when installing other packages23:20
juicemeyes :)23:21
juicemebut what do you propose to do to help it, then?23:22
peterleinchenthere are at least two locations of those mirrors out there. we could just point to them and link directly, explain how to install. no more23:24
peterleinchendo you know if those packages from Nokia repositories were all open sourced,.GPLed, ...?23:25
peterleinchenor propietary sources?23:26
juicemewell, no knowledge but i'd guess they are propietary23:27
peterleinchenmy guess too, hence the question about direct linking23:28
juicemenot much we can discuss about it then...23:38
peterleinchenonly thing is to get the legal situation clarified23:41
peterleinchenbut I would not know whom to ask?23:41
juicemewe might ask for legal advice on TMO, ask if there are any lawyers present?23:42
peterleinchenhmmm23:42
juicemeor FSF, I think you asked them before on the trademark of some linux or so?23:43
peterleinchenwoody?23:43
juicemei'm not sure woody is a lawyer, even when he knows about some legal things23:43
peterleinchenno, that was linuxfoundation. no answer at all23:43
juicemeah, so it was23:43
peterleinchenFSF, then gryllida?23:44
juicemeFSF should know23:44
juicemeis gryllida associated with FSF?23:45
peterleinchenyes, afair oksana's or her own introduction23:46
juicemeokay23:47
peterleinchenand I will contact gryllida23:56
