Clarify what "3rd party" means

This issue is likely already addressed, but I figured I would move it to the appropriate location with the right tag so the right folks can answer this, or point out the answer.

I agree that this has been addressed already and is now clarified on http://drupal.org/node/422996 (the page sreynen links) to, but just to make sure:

The following statement appears in the documentation page about 3rd party libraries and content on Drupal.org:

This policy [about 3rd party materials] does not apply to original code written by a project maintainer. For example, if you write an integration library to connect a Drupal module to another API, you may include it in a repository (licensed under the GPLv2+), since this will be the original version of the library.

That section clearly says that the Drupal.org Git repo third party policy only applies to materials written by somebody else, and not to the original author of the materials. I.e. original authors are allowed to put a own work in the repo, even if it is a library that is also hosted elsewhere.

While the policy regarding third party materials is currently being reviewed by the LWG, nobody has suggested that this policy (explicit permission to include own works) is changed.

I'll leave this open to allow others to comment. If nobody objects to the above interpretation in two weeks, I'll close this as "Fixed".

No objections for two weeks. Changing status.
