busmon and Stack Overflow licensing.
Oct 05, 2012 | categories: fedmsg, busmon, fedora View CommentsToday, I was working on busmon and trying to minimize some of the spam it was publishing back to the fedmsg bus. This amounted to cutting out some server-side code that used pygments to produce styled html markup and replacing it with client-side code that did approximately the same thing.
@lmacken found this Stack Overflow piece that did just about what I needed. Like any reasonable person, I copied and pasted and was satisfied.
Licensing! Hold the phone! Turns out that content on Stack Overflow is licensed CC-BY-SA-3.0. By my reading, code posted there is therefore incompatible with GPL code.
Wild, right?
Denouement -> I ended up rewriting it my way just to get on with it.
