updates to LANL/Triad copyright and license#1030
Conversation
|
I went ahead and changed the copyright notices at the tops of all the drivers. That might be appropriate if they are not significantly different from the standalone (and mct/cesm1) drivers, but since LANL/Triad has never used most of the others and they were developed elsewhere for other codes, perhaps those should be copyrighted differently? Your thoughts, please. I'm willing to leave things as they are and make adjustments moving forward, but I'm also happy to discuss and fix anything you think is amiss. |

At first look it seemed odd for Triad copyright to be marking drivers that are part of different groups' code, but upon examining the limited CICE code in which it appears, it makes sense, and it's just replacing the existing equivalent text. Thanks for fixing this to the satisfaction of various groups' legal departments.

There is one other file with the copyright in it, cicecore/drivers/unittest/opticep/CICE.F90 That file is a copy of the file in the standalone/cice directory, you should be able to copy it directly. |
Updates LANL/Triad copyright and license per discussions with attorneys
@eclare108213
Not tested pending further discussion regarding the drivers.
LANL attorneys requested revisions to our copyright and license, following discussions with NOAA. This change separates the previous copyright/license notice into separate files, changes the Triad copyright date to "1998, 2017", and states that the license is standard BSD-3.
Similar changes will need to be made for Icepack.
