Incorrect/unclear use of GPL in text

Reported by: rleigh Owned by: jburel
Priority: minor Milestone: OMERO-4.4
Component: Insight Version: n.a.
Keywords: n.a. Cc: jburel, lunson-x

Sprint: 2012-07-17 (19)

Description (last modified by jburel)

"OMERO is developed under the GPL."

But, the GPL is a /distribution/ licence, and has little to do with development. It would be clearer, and more correct, to say

"OMERO is distributed under the terms of the GNU GPL"

Or even "General Public License" in place of GPL to be completely unambiguous. The same applies to Insight as well as web.

Regards,
Roger
