MantisBT Copyright

Post by jki »

Hello Mantis Team,

for our Bug tracking tool we use MantisBT and we have one question:

Is it important to have the copyright info "Powered by MantisBT Copyright © 2000 - 2017 MantisBT Team" in the footer or are we allowed to delete it?

Thank you in advance for your help.

I am not a lawyer and no native English speaker, so I am not able to understand the license in each detail https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.htm
You would have to read the complete license and check what is allowed for your special use.
There was a similar question for phpBB which uses the same license that we use https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtop ... &t=2091505
Please use Search before posting and read the Manual
