License?

(2002/02/06) A question suddenly occurred to me that should have been brought up earlier. How is the PHP script licensed, exactly? The Sourceforge project page says GPL, but the actual code contains no reference to licensing. Magnus, am I to assume that this is a simple error of omission? If so, it should be corrected immediately; a copy of the GPL should be included and notices to that effect put into all the source files. If we are using the GPL, I agree that my contributions be licensed in accordance with it. If not, let me know! --Brion VIBBER

Yes, it is GPL. Maybe the URL of the GPL in wiki.phtml would be enough? --Magnus Manske
No, it's not enough. We need an actual copy of the GPL in the package, and we need copyright statements at the top of every file. You can pick any GNU program as a template. AxelBoldt

Called the PHP script? Let's give this script a proper name! --Stephen Gilbert
How about Inkwell or PHPedia for starters? --MarkReid
I thought it was already called "PediaWiki"... --Larry_Sanger

Stable Version?

If there any stable release of Phase III available? I've downloaded the CVS Snapshot but there some Problems with the database. Or is Phase III for Beta-Testing only?
