Subject: The very first oFono release

Hello everyone,

I just went ahead and tagged version 0.1 of oFono. We have announced this project about 3 month ago, but the actual code base is a little bit older of course. And at some point we have to start making releases :)

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/network/ofono/

Not everything is fully functional at this point of time, but simple voice call handling with an AT based modem (or phone simulator) should be working fine. If anything fails, please send bug reports to the mailing list and we will fix it.

Basic SMS support is available and within the next releases we will make sure it works properly. After that the work on GPRS/HSPA with smooth integration into ConnMan will start. Just to give everybody a heads up.

I also think it is a good time for package maintainers to look into making oFono available in their distributions. And give feedback on things that don't integrate well.

The first sticking point, at least from a debian perspective, is this line in the README file;
Copyright (C) 2008-2009 Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.

This does not fit with debian's free software guidelines[0]. Specifically point 7;

"The rights attached to the program must apply to all to whom the program is redistributed without the need for execution of an additional license by those parties."

Until that line in the README file is changed, ofono cannot be packaged for debian and placed into debian's free software repositories.
