Re: [Chinese-translators] Translations of licenses' titles

[Yale Wu]

hi,

Nice to see there are still some guys alive in this mail-list. :)

I have just finished all the translations including not only you mentioned 
before(GPL,LGPL,FDL), 
but all the licenses that have been approved by OSI. (See 
http://opensource.org/licenses/)
The initiative of doing this is my tutor's project proposed by Department of 
China Science&Technology.
I am sorry that these are just raw and will be discussed by professions and 
lawyers so that
I cannot provide all of them on website as electronical documents, just to 
avoid misleading someone.
But I'd like to discuss all these things. Here is my opinion:

I translate "The GNU Lesser General Public License" into "GNU次公共许可证",
But in fact it is involved in GNU library, so some one would like to say it
"GNU库公共许可证”.
I prefer the first translation "GNU次公共许可证", not for verbatim reason,
but because LGPL really has lesser limitation than GPL.

Best Regards

Yale Wu
