CVS edit link for seanburlington
Hi,I've been working on http://data.gov.uk/ - a UK government site for Open Data
Some of the code for this project has been released under GPL
http://data.gov.uk/blog/datagovuk-releases-open-source-code
This code interface Drupal with CKAN: CKAN stores the catalogue behind data.gov.uk and a growing number of open data registries around the world. It is a project created by the Open Knowledge Foundation to provide make it easy to find, share and reuse open content and data.
This allows open data projects to leverage the social aspects of Drupal and obtain the benefits of CKAN functionalty such as the data API.
There are already a number of other project teams around the world who are interested in using this code and have asked for it to be hosted on drupal.org
Prior to release we asked Kieran Lal an Aquia to assist - and he helped by getting Ben Jeavons of the Drupal security team to review the code - and he gave it a clean bill of health.

coltraneTo confirm, I reviewed the code for vulnerabilities and against http://drupal.org/writing-secure-code and I didn't find anything. I didn't really review the code otherwise.

apadernoAny reference to the license used should be removed from the code.
The copyright statement would not be anymore exact from the moment you accept patches created by other users. To make a comparison, Drupal is not reported to be copyrighted from Dries Buytaert; it is reported to be copyrighted from each contributors.

seanburlington CreditAttribution: seanburlington commentedHi,
thanks for the review above and apologies for the delay - the issue of copyright statements is a difficult one for me as the copyright is held by my client not myself so I'm not free to just remove this.
In the meantime I've been collaboration on another module and am now requesting CVS access in order to co-maintain this

Ivo.Radulovski CreditAttribution: Ivo.Radulovski commentedthis is the licence corresponding to the "crown copyright" http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/
right?
we have to overcome the obstacles and publish this module - in future this is going to be crucial for the success of open source modules published by governments.
