Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) and Code Provenance

This page documents code provenance of rasdaman.

Paleo rasdaman

The rasdaman code originally has been developed through research projects led by Peter Baumann, culminating in the establishment of rasdaman GmbH as a research spin-off dedicated to the commercialization of rasdaman. By way of legal contract, Peter Baumann / rasdaman GmbH is rightful owner of the code.

Starting 2008, rasdaman GmbH - in collaboration with the Large-Scale Scientific Information Systems research group at Jacobs University - has derived an open-source version of rasdaman, now known as rasdaman community which is hosted at this site, www.rasdaman.org. In the process of establishing a clear code provenance policy, rasdaman GmbH has signed the same submitter agreement that every committer today has to agree with (see below).

Original Contributions

Every submitter, enforced by the Patch Manager logic, has to accept the Rasdaman License Agreement, so it is ensured that such contributions are conforming to the overall license statement. Submissions are kept in a local database and can be retrieved at any time.

Copyright Header

All files in rasdaman have the following header (formatting varies between C/C++/Java/Makefile/shell scripts/etc.). While the server parts are GPL, the client APIs are LGPL; as the latter are the only parts linked into some application code, this allows any kind of code (including proprietary code) to make use of rasdaman.

Should an "own license" statement above be inconsistent with a file header, then the file header prevails.
