+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #433115 +++ Totem includes the Gedit/Ephy/Rhythmbox plugin system which is GPL without the gstreamer excemption.

relicensing is fine by me. kikidonk also did work on gedit plugin system (mostly the python plugins)
Fine by me

I don't think I've contributed a significant amount of code to the plugin framework, I guess I was added to the list because of my trivial patch to sort the plugin list in the plugin selection dialog. Whatsoever, I'm ok with the relicensing.
I'm ok with the relicensing.

Fine by me. Of the people that haven't replied yet, I'd received permission from adamh and sfre for the relicencing in Rhythmbox.

jesse hangs out in #gedit usually, but probably bugmail gets lost in the noise.
ok for me
Ok for me too !
Fine by me!
I hereby give you permission to use the parts of the plugin system's code taken from epiphany (directly, or via rhythmbox, or gedit) that I own the copyright on, as that code exists in totem svn trunk as of yesterday, 12.5.2007, under the GPL version 2 or later, with the totem gstreamer licence exemption added.
Thanks a lot guys! It's all sorted now (Crispin and Jon replied by mail, instead of on this bug). 2007-05-13 Bastien Nocera <hadess@hadess.net> * license_change: * src/plugins/totem-module.c: * src/plugins/totem-module.h: * src/plugins/totem-plugin-manager.c: * src/plugins/totem-plugin-manager.h: * src/plugins/totem-plugin.c: * src/plugins/totem-plugin.h: * src/plugins/totem-plugins-engine.c: * src/plugins/totem-plugins-engine.h: Add exception clauses to the above mentioned filed, thanks to the copyright holders for agreeing to the relicensing (Closes: #435523) * src/plugins/screensaver/totem-screensaver.c: * src/plugins/media-player-keys/totem-media-player-keys.c: * src/plugins/sidebar-test/totem-sidebar-test.c: * src/plugins/galago/totem-galago.c: * src/plugins/ontop/totem-ontop.c: Remove wrong mention of a relicensing date, all those files date from after the relicensing, just mention the license_change file instead * src/plparse/totem-disc.c: Update copyright, fix excemption/exception again
Fine by me.
