v2 cover ARM: dts: vf610: relicense the device trees under GPLv2/X11

I collected the Acks I received so far and removed them from the list below. Several Freescale addresses are no longer valid (the once starting with --)... I would interprete the Ack from Yuan Yao as an Ack from Freescale.

Matt, you introduced the vf610-cosmic.dts board, is it possible to get an ack for this too? I think you did not receive v1 of this patch due to an old email address, sorry about that.

PATCH v2 1/4 ARM: dts: vf610: relicense vf???.dtsi under GPLv2/X11

GPLv2-only devicetrees make reuse difficult for software components licensed under a different license.

The consensus is that a GPL/X11 dual-license should allow all necessary uses, so relicense the vfxxx.dtsi, vf500.dtsi and vf610.dtsi files to this combination.

CCs were acquired using (updated some email addresses, commented out bouncing email addresses with --):

PATCH v2 3/4 ARM: dts: vf610-cosmic: relicense vf610-cosmic.dts under GPLv2/X11

Hi Matt,

Any chance to get an Ack from you for this patch?

Quoted 70 lines · Stefan Agner

GPLv2-only devicetrees make reuse difficult for software components licensed under a different license.

The consensus is that a GPL/X11 dual-license should allow all necessary uses, so relicense the vf610-twr.dts file to this combination.

CCs were acquired using (updated some email addresses):
git shortlog -sne --no-merges arch/arm/boot/dts/vf610-cosmic.dts

v2 cover ARM: dts: vf610: relicense the device trees under GPLv2/X11

In reply to Stefan Agner
Quoted 8 lines · Stefan Agner

I collected the Acks I received so far and removed them from the list below. Several Freescale addresses are no longer valid (the once starting with --)... I would interprete the Ack from Yuan Yao as an Ack from Freescale.

Matt, you introduced the vf610-cosmic.dts board, is it possible to get an ack for this too? I think you did not receive v1 of this patch due to an old email address, sorry about that.

I thought I'd already sent an ack for this, but it looks like I forgot somehow.

Sorry about the confusion, I do have your ack and hence removed you from the list. However I still put everyone in CC, probably not what I should have done?

In reply to Stefan Agner

Hi Shawn,

For patches 1, 2 and 4 I think we have enough Acks to consider it safe to change the license.

For Patch 3, the Cosmic board, I can not get an Ack nor a Nack from Matt Porter, unfortunately... But IMHO it should not hold us back from merging the rest, what do you think?
