Re: [webcomponents] I need clarity on the document license before I can continue editing (#415) from Domenic Denicola on 2016-03-07 (public-webapps-github@w3.org from March 2016)

Message-ID: <w3c/webcomponents/issues/415/193335599@github.com>

I have received confirmation from Google legal that the following will suffice:

> Part of the revision history of the custom elements feature can be found in [the w3c/webcomponents repository],  which is available under the [W3C Permissive Document License](https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/2015/copyright-software-and-document).

This would be placed in the Acknowledgements section, underneath the destination spec's copyright declaration.

Our lawyer pointed out that https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/IPR-FAQ-20000620#software_publisher (especially item 2) makes it clearer that this is sufficient.

Editing can now continue! (After lunch.)
