Hi,

We're in the process of clarifying licensing of the code we used in the Ebola project so that we can do a public open source release.

We noticed that there are many files in org/openmrs/module/xforms that don't have a license notice at the top.  May we have permission to treat everything in this package as licensed under the same terms, namely the following terms mentioned in some of the files?

/** * The contents of this file are subject to the OpenMRS Public License
* Version 1.0 (the "License"); you may not use this file except in
* compliance with the License. You may obtain a copy of the License at

Thank you!

Hi Ping! Thanks for your question. I will defer questions about the specific files in the xforms module to other developers (hopefully the response will come very soon) but will kindly note that we've deprecated the OpenMRS Public License in favor of MPL 2.0. Not all of our key modules have yet been updated to the new license, but that work is in progress. Details:


Let us know if you have further questions about the licensing.

Cheers,

Hi Ping,

Yes same terms. Feel free to add the missing license header.
