License and Source

[Ryan J Ollos]

Thank you for publishing your plugin. I have two requests. Would you kindly add a license to the source code? If you have no preference, you could choose to use the 3-Clause BSD license that Trac uses. Also, I noticed that you published the egg and did not include the source code.

[Ryan J Ollos]

Or perhaps that's the source in the .bkp file? If so, why the extension after .py?

3-Clause BSD license is oke for me. The source code is in macro.py.bkp indeed, I use the .bkp extension to indicate that it is not the actual source file, because is has some _REPLACE strings as parameters in the file. This script is based on an other macro: SqlQueryMacro I contacted the Author and he was oke with redistributing this version.

Replying to fvdberg:

This script is based on an other macro: SqlQueryMacro I contacted the Author and he was oke with redistributing this version.

In that case it is probably good to retain the original authors license, which is also 3-Clause BSD.

[Ryan J Ollos]

Copying the license file from ​here and adding your name and the SqlQueryMacro author's name to the file would do the job.

[Ryan J Ollos]

One more request, would you mind adding the license file to the repository? There's a summary of good practices here: DevGuide#License.

[fvdberg]

Oke, I added the license file to the svn repository.

Looks good. Thanks!
