This is the Mapbender Project copy of Code Provenance Review. See also the status of the Mapbender Incubation Progress.

Goal

To establish a reasonable comfort level that projects going through incubation do not have improperly contributed code, and that the code is all under the project license.

A code provenance review is desirable because it reduces the risk of the foundation, project developers or software users becoming involved in a legal action or having their use of the software disrupted by sudden removal of improperly contributed code. In particular, many enterprises will not build on open source software projects without some degree of assurance that care is being taken to avoid improper contributions.

It is not the goal to be able to prove that every source file, and every contribution to those files, was contributed properly. The onus is not on us to prove there are no problems. However we want to ensure we do not release code with provenance issues that we could have identified and corrected with a reasonable effort.

External Library Review

Other licensing model

The following pieces of code need some attention. These modules could be included as external components with a separate download path. Maybe the distribution work group has some ideas how they can manage this.

mod_treefolder

Implements a collapsible folder tree structure which controls the layers of WMS services.

License text in mod_treefolder

Code Copyright Review

The objective here is to visit every source file, and identify possible issues, and work to "regularize" things.

/http/extensions/

The directory /http/extensions/ needs some attention. Some of these modules are hacks and just beta they still need a license text. Some of them are so tiny that the license text would be more lines of code than the module itself. Does it even then need to be added?

/http/javascripts/

Quite a few of these scripts do not conatain a reference to the GPL or a copyright string. In some cases the reference to the license would be longer than the code block itself. This makes sense because it reduces the amount of traffic required to load the client. Is this a problem?
