Our SVN requires indemnification and login, can I provide a login for OhLoh?
I am working on an open source project but he lab where I work requires all users indemnify us before they can get svn access. Is there anyway to give Ohloh an account to use to access the repository and then allow it to track checkins, etc but not show source code?
Thanks a lot,
Dan
Daniel,
I will pass your interest on to management but to answer their anticipated question, what open source license will require both an indemnification and a non-disclosure agreement?
Please let me know.
Thanks!
Thanks for your response, our project is LGPL but legal department is overly paranoid and is not buying our argument that every other LGPL project just has anonymous svn read access
. The project is at http://openstudio.nrel.gov/, and the request svn access button is at http://openstudio.nrel.gov/developers. To get access you have to register and then accept an agreement which indemnifies DOE and NREL. If there are any precedents or documents showing that LGPL projects can allow read only svn access we might be able to pass on to our legal that might help too, although I would not expect them to change their tune.
Thanks a lot,
Dan
PS: that is also why we can't let users see source code from Ohloh. In order to see the source in any way legal wants users to actively accept terms that indemnifies us.
