From: @mdkinney

This RFC follows up on the proposal from Mark Doran to change the
EDK II Project to a BSD+Patent License.

https://lists.01.org/pipermail/edk2-devel/2019-February/036260.html

The review period for this license change is 30 days. If there is no
unresolved feedback on April 9, 2019, then commits of the license change
patches will begin on April 9, 2019.

** Please provide feedback on the proposal by Monday April 8, 2019. **

Feedback can be sent to [email protected], the EDK II community
manager or any of the EDK II stewards.

The goal is to convert all of the files in the edk2 repository that are
currently covered by the BSD 2-Clause License and the TianoCore
Contribution Agreement to a BSD+Patent License.

I will be following up with pointers to public GitHub branches that
contain the set of changes to the edk2 repository for review.

The proposal is to perform this change to edk2/master in the steps listed
below. The license change will not be applied to any of the other existing
branches in the edk2 repository.

1. Add a License-History.txt file to the root of the edk2 repository that
   contains the BSD 2-Clause License and the TianoCore Contribution
   Agreement along with the details on the license change to BSD+Patent.

2. Change all files currently covered by a BSD 2-Clause license and the
   TianoCore Contribution Agreement to a BSD+Patent license and add an
   SPDX-License-Identifier statement. The link to the BSD+Patent license
   and the text for file headers is listed below.

3. Update Readme.md and License.txt in the root of the edk2 repository to
   state that content is covered by a BSD+Patent license. Also state that
   BSD+Patent is the preferred license for the EDK II project.

4. Remove the Contributions.txt file in the root of the edk2 repository
   That contiants the TianoCore Contribution Agreement.

5. Update all documentation to state that content submitted under the
   BSD+Patent license no longer requires the Tianocore Contribution
   Agreement which means the following line is not required in commit
   messages for changes to files that are covered by a BSD+Patent.

   Contributed-under: TianoCore Contribution Agreement 1.1
   

6. Create Wiki page(s) that provide the details of the BSD+Patent License
   change and provide the status of the license change for each TianoCore
   repository and package.

Once the conversion of the edk2 repository is complete, work will begin
on the other repositories in the TianoCore project.

Changes for V2

• Replace 2-Clause BSD License in file headers with SPDX-License-Identifier
  statement. This reduces the size of the file headers and the size
  of the patches for this change. Based on the following post:

  https://01.org/blogs/jc415/2018/open-source-hacks-one-question-interviews-open-source-experts-how-use-spdx-headers

• Update License.txt in root of edk2 before changing file headers.

• Fix minor typos

From: @mdkinney

New in V3

• Update the base of the patch series from edk2-stable201903 to
  7ed7212 that is after the file add/remove freeze:

  https://lists.01.org/pipermail/edk2-devel/2019-April/038574.html

• Replace copyright line in License.txt in root with a single copyright
  for "TianoCore and contributors".

• Clarify commit message for changes to License.txt to state the text
  differences are larger than expected due to differences in line breaks.

• There is one less patch in the series than V2 due to the retirement
  of the EdkCompatibilityPkg.

• The git feature "git range-diff" can be used to compare the V2 and
  V3 branches even though they have different bases. If you have both
  the V2 and V3 branches in your local repo, you can use the following
  command to see the changes. Most are due to the removal of .S files
  in March. If you pipe through grep looking for "diff --git" you will
  see the list of files with differences.

  git range-diff edk2-stable201903..Bug_1373_BsdPatentLicense_V2 7ed7212..Bug_1373_BsdPatentLicense_V3

New in V2

• Remove Cc lines from commit messages
• Remove branch reference from commit messages
• Change license in 2 files missed in OvmfPkg
• Update OvmfPkg/License.txt to BSD+Patent as the default license
• Move the portions of Contributions.txt in the root of edk2 to
  Readme.md in the root of edk2 that describe how to contribute
  along with the commit message format.
• Add to Readme.md in the root of edk2 that Signed-off-by means that
  the contributor certifies compliance to the Developer's Certificate
  of Origin 1.1. https://developercertificate.org
  =========

BZ: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1373

This change is based on the following emails:
https://lists.01.org/pipermail/edk2-devel/2019-February/036260.html
https://lists.01.org/pipermail/edk2-devel/2018-October/030385.html

V1: https://lists.01.org/pipermail/edk2-devel/2019-March/037500.html

I have posted the patch series for review on the following branch using
7ed7212 as the base for the patch series.

https://github.com/mdkinney/edk2/tree/Bug_1373_BsdPatentLicense_V3

The commits in patch series can be viewed here:

https://github.com/mdkinney/edk2/commits/Bug_1373_BsdPatentLicense_V3

The patch series has one patch per package along with a few patches
to update the license information in the root of the edk2 repository
as described in the RFC V3.

Due to the size of the patch series, I prefer to not send the
patch emails. Instead, please perform code reviews using content
from the branch.

All EDK II package maintainers and package reviewers should provide
review feedback for their packages. The critical part of the review
is:

1. Any changes that cause build breaks or logic changes. These code
   changes are intended to only modify license contents in comment
   blocks.
2. Any file that has been changed to BSD+Patent, but should remain
   with the current license.
3. Any file that that has not changed to BSD+Patent, but should be
   changed to BSD+Patent.

Feedback and Reviewed-by emails should identify the patch the feedback
applies using the patch summary listed below. The goal is to complete
all reviews to support the commit of these patches on April 9, 2019.
