Re: Schedule::DRMAAc, and a DRMAA python module
Hi Enrico, This is most excellent! Thank you. I've been hoping someone would do exactly what you've done here. I'm copying the DRMAA working group because I think they too would be very excited to see that DRMAA now has a Python binding. To the group I'd like to ask if anyone knows more about the GPL such that they could advise on how to stay true to its form... Does anyone know what Enrico must do to meeat all the requirements he needs to in order to release his code? I think maybe he has, because all he need do is to include a copy of the license agreement and reference the original work... but I'll need to contact my employer resources, regarding the licensing. I know that by releasing under the GPL you are entitled to re-release with modifications, but I think there may be some specific legal mumbo-jumbo that has to be included to satisfy University of California. I'll find out for you soonest. Thanks again for doing this Enrico, it is very exciting for DRMAA to get Python support! PS I've not included Enrico's code attachment, for anyone wishing to view it please ask him directly... ----- Original Message ----- From: <enrico.sirola@statpro.com> To: <harsch1@llnl.gov> Sent: Friday, October 21, 2005 2:38 AM Subject: Schedule::DRMAAc, and a DRMAA python module
Hello Tim, I wrote a python module for the DRMAA library starting from your SWIG file I would contribute to the open sourcecommunity. Since I started from your swig file, the module will be released under the GPLv2 and I'd like to be sure that you agrees on the copyright notices I wrote. If you can take a look at the package I'd appreciate it a lot. If agree with license, credits etc please let me know it so I will post it somewhere. The whole stuff is a few kilobytes only, to I attached it here. Thanks in advance, enrico

Hi Tim, A while ago, we had a discussion on the GE mailing list about licensing the code under a less restricted license... with a GPL library anything linking against it needs to be licensed as GPL. I am not sure whether including the interpreter binding counts as "linking against" the library... but if the SWIG file is licensed as LGPL then we don't need to worry about this issue.
