About page needs to be updated to reflect license update (see also bug 9440). Currently it states: Koha Koha is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
Created attachment 16841 [details] [review] proposed patch Changed the license from GPL 2 to 3 on the About page as well as the URL to the current license.
The link in the patch points to http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html, but I imagine a future in which the "default" license at that URL becomes GPL 4. I think it would be safer to link to a 3.0-specific page: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html
Created attachment 16862 [details] [review] Updated patch with URL to GPL 3 Hi Owen, Fair enough. I changed the URL that I hadn't found earlier by a quick glance through the page. It's somewhat hidden. Cheers Kristina
Hi Kristina! The link for "BSD license" is broken when I click on it from the About Koha page. Other than that, I tested the patch by verifying that the new text appears under About Koha, and all of the other links work fine. Thanks, Melia
Created attachment 16902 [details] [review] Revised patch incl. YUI license link fix
Hi Melia, I didn't change any other license on the page because the bug was for the GPL license. ;-) The YUI license is fixed now as well. Cheers Kristina

Oh, heh. I thought I was supposed to test all of those links on that page. :) Thanks for fixing it as well! I am signing off. Melia
:-) It's better that the link is fixed as well.
