A package was submitted to savannah.nongnu.org
This mail was sent to address@hidden, address@hidden
Fernando "Lalo" Martins <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: other
Other License: Modules are in different licenses:
pax: public domain, one file in Python 2.2 license
others: Zope license version 2
Package: OpenTAL
System name: opental
Type: non-GNU
Description:
This is a python-based engine for webpage templates (similar in spirit to php,
asp and others). It implements the same language (TAL) used in Zope Page
Templates; in fact one of the modules included is a Zope interface to the
engine.
Current code can be found at http://www.zope.org/Members/lalo/AltPT. I\'m
migrating this to Savannah because the code is spread trough several places,
most of them sourceforge-based. As part of this migration it will be renamed
from AltTAL and AltPT to OpenTAL and OpenPT.
Other Software Required:
The code is written in Python and therefore requires it, version 2.1 or newer.
No non-free software is required or, for that matter, supported. Some modules
(OpenPT, PlacelessTranslationService) require Zope.
Other Comments:
1: all modules have, or will have at the end of the migration, a copy of their
license in a file LICENSE.txt, except for the module that is public domain.
2: all files have, or will have at the end of the migration, a small license
statement in their first lines
3: the \"Open\" in the project name refers to the fact that it has
extensibility and maintainability as design goals; it is \"open\" to extensions
that are easily hooked in. It has no relation at all to \"Open Source\", a
term I do not like personally. It is there because this project started,
months ago, as a fork of Zope\'s TAL and ZPT packages; the analogy is to
OpenBSD vs. BSD, not to Open Source. No, I am not willing to change the name,
but I can sign a contract in blood swearing I will not use the words \"Open
Source\" in documentation or the website, except to explain that it has no
relation to the project name.
