Contributing to Greynir - Important Information

Greynir is open source software, licensed under the GNU GPLv3 license.

Your contributions to this software, via pull requests to our GitHub repository or by other means, are greatly appreciated. They help the Icelandic language to survive and thrive in a digital world.

That said, and to avoid any misunderstanding, we would like to bring your attention to the following before you decide to contribute to our repository:

  • In order to maximize the impact of Greynir, for as many users and use cases as possible, the software copyright owner, Miðeind ehf., reserves the right to enter into alternative licensing agreements, differing from the GNU GPLv3, with parties who wish to use this software in closed or proprietary systems.

  • Your contributions to our repository, if accepted, become an integral part of the software therein. They will thus necessarily be a part of the deliverables that would be included under any such alternative licensing agreements.

  • An unavoidable consequence of this is that by contributing to our repository, you are granting us permission, free of charge, to deal in the contributed software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the contributed software. (This language is materially obtained from the MIT License.)

  • The disclaimers of warranty found in the GNU GPLv3 apply to your contributions in any event.
