I have recently developed a few python plugins for my employer to monitor Linux servers in a widely distributed cloud computing environment. These plugins collect extensive virtual memory and storage devices related metrics. I am considering contributing them back to collectd. In order to get permission to open source these plugins, I need to know if there are any licensing requirements that will have to be fulfilled. On our end, we can open source only through BSD license. Let me know if it will work.<o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div id="yiv7966756575yui_3_16_0_1_1438031416922_753624"><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></div></div><div id="yiv7966756575yui_3_16_0_1_1438031416922_753624"><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;">Regards,<o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div id="yiv7966756575yui_3_16_0_1_1438031416922_753638"><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div id="yiv7966756575yui_3_16_0_1_1438031416922_753626"><div id="yiv7966756575yui_3_16_0_1_1438031416922_753625"><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;">A.Waheed.</span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
