What license do themes need to have for distribution?
Could someone specify what license the themes need to have to get
distributed in ikiwiki or Debian? The current included theme seem to be
under the GPLv2. Does the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported
License also work. This way a
lot of free CSS templates could be included, e. g. from
freecsstemplates.org. --PaulePanter
Paule, I'd love it if you did that! The only hard requirement on themes
included in ikiwiki is that they need to be licensed with a DFSG
compatable license. CC-BY-SA 3.0
is DFSG; CC-BY is apparently being accepted by Debian too.
As a soft requirement, I may exersise some discretion about themes that
require obtrusive attributions links be included on every page of a
site using the theme. While probably DFSG, that adds a requirement
that ikiwiki itself does not require. --[[Joey]]
