Yes, will do. If Joseph agrees, then I'll submit the change to his
template plugin and then we can copy it into the others.

Sorry, I’d missed David out, now included in the discussion.
It occurred to me in a licensing talk at FOSDEM that Foreman
plugins are
likely derivative works of Foreman itself, and so should follow its
licence.
Plugins are generally extending Foreman’s functionality, rather
than
interfacing to Foreman. In particular we’re extending classes
already
defined by Foreman.
We’re all currently using the MIT licence for the plugins, but
Foreman
is GPLv3+, so I suggest we relicense the plugin projects to GPLv3+
also.
What do you think?
I think we should do that.
That was just some cut+paste from the original plugin repo (which wasn’t written by me).
Can you give some guidelines on how to do so? (I guess we just need to replace the LICENSE file, but if you can send me the right one it would be great).
Yes, will do. If Joseph agrees, then I’ll submit the change to his
template plugin and then we can copy it into the others.
