Clarify in LICENSE.txt that the noVNC core library is the part that is
LGPLv3 licensed. The HTML, CSS, images and fonts are separate from the
core library and can be modified and distributed with the noVNC core
but under their own license conditions.
HTML and CSS: 2-Clause BSD
Fonts: SIL OFL 1.1
Images: CC BY SA 3.0
In other words, you can modify the layout and appearance of of noVNC
to integrate with an existing or new web site or application without
having to publish the source for those modifications under the LGPLv3.
However, use of and modification of the noVNC core library (i.e. the
core Javascript that makes up noVNC) must still be according to the
LGPLv3.
Chris Gordon was the other contributor to the HTML, CSS, and images
included with noVNC and gave permission for this license clarification
on June 23, 2012.
- Remove the images using the old font.
- Simplify the naming of the new control bar icon images.
- Change keyboard input type to 'email'. 'url' type doesn't have
a space bar.
- Some clarifications to main LICENSE.txt file.
noVNC version 0.1
Add debian packaging directory loosely based on
http://trac.zentyal.org/browser/trunk/extra/novnc/debian
Show web root directory on startup (pulled from websockify f1c8223).
Lintian fixups:
- Some license text clarifications.
- remove executable permission on utils/launch.sh and
include/web-socket-js/web_socket.js
- Add executable permission to utils/launch.sh
Thanks to Michael Sersen for creating images/Logo.svg.
- Add images directory with original SVG logo, favicon, and some
derivative PNGs of the logo for different purpose.
- Note that license on images/* is CC BY-SA.
- Add utils/img2js.py to take an image and generate a base64 encoded
data URI string.
- Add base64 encoded data URI screen logo to display in canvas when
disconnected.
web-socket-js now has all the functionality and fixes needed for noVNC
so remove the include/as3crypto_patched directory and the
include/web-socket-js/flash-src directory (i.e. the sources for
web-socket-js). This cleans up almost 3K from the include/ directory.
Update to web-socket-js build based on upstream (gimite/web-socket-js)
9e766377188.
The purpose of the code is to be incorporated into other web projects
(whether those are free or not). AGPL prevents combination with other
HTML and javascript that is under a weaker (or proprietary) license.
Better would be a lesser AGPL, but there is not GNU standard for that.
So LGPL-3 meets most of my requirements. If somebody modifies the
actual client code and conveys it, then they must release the changes
under LGPL-3 also.
Add some implementation notes in docs/notes.
