Hi all,

we use Jenkins and quite a few of its plugins in our organization. Due to legal reasons we are required to keep track of which licenses any software we use falls under. Generally this is pretty easy.

However, I'd estimate that less than half of the Jenkins core and plugin components that we use has clear license info (e.g. a license file in a github repo or a license mentioned on http://maven-repository.com). Would it be possible to have a look at this? Or is there perhaps an implicit license that applies when no license is specified?

The following plugins are ones that I'm having trouble finding a license for:

ruby-runtime plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/ruby-runtime-plugin
git plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/git-plugin
email-ext plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/email-ext-plugin
rvm plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/rvm-plugin
github api plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/github-api-plugin
git client plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/git-client-plugin
html publisher plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/htmlpublisher-plugin
maven project plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/maven-plugin/tree/master
multijob plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/tikal-multijob-plugin
parameterized trigger plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/parameterized-trigger-plugin
timestamper plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/timestamper-plugin
token macro plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/token-macro-plugin
build name setter plugin https://github.com/jenkinsci/build-name-setter-plugin

What would be the correct way to go about collecting license information for these? I've opened a few pull requests on github with licensing info for these, but was told that writing a JIRA ticket like this might yield better results.

Many thanks,
Tom
