Hi :)

congratulation for your great project! Just one question: why did you
decide to keep it close at the beginning?

> I'm pleased to announce that I've just closed bug #3881, which means
> that from now on Canola and all its components are licensed under the
> GNU General Public License version 3.
>
> The source code of the former closed-source packages, Atabake,
> Download Manager, Terra and Canola, has been uploaded to our gitorious
> server a few hours ago.

> The canola-devel mailing list for developers is already set up and
> working on garage. Everyone is very welcome to join us in the
> development of the project. For documentation, such as installation
> instructions, build dependency, and so on, I'm setting up a wiki that
> should go online by the end of this week under the openbossa.org
> domain.
>
> With all this, Canola officially leaves the beta status. The packages
> of for the final 2.0.0 version will be uploaded soon, together with
> brand new Maemo-EFL.
>
> Last, I'd like to thank everyone for supporting the project even
> before the very first release and especially for providing feedback on
> the various releases we had since December 2007. If today we were able
> to release Canola as Free Software, consider yourself responsible for
> it as well.

> Best Regards, Etrunko.
