Stuck on an issue?

Lightrun Answers was designed to reduce the constant googling that comes with debugging 3rd party libraries. It collects links to all the places you might be looking at while hunting down a tough bug.

And, if you’re still stuck at the end, we’re happy to hop on a call to see how we can help out.

I intend to package mininet in the official Fedora repos, but the current non-standard license text may be a blocker. Our packaging guidelines require us to set a license identifier from a list of approved licenses. mininet’s license is identified as BSD in the setup.py file, but then the text is not standard and it is more similar to a MIT license (automatic tools identify it as MIT, in fact). Would you consider switching to a standard text, such as the 3-Clause BSD license?

@Enchufa2 Actually managed to get the approvals (in addition to my own) with help from folks at ONF and Stanford.

Merged in #1141

Github now auto-detects it as a BSD 3-clause license.
