Licensing and component inventory

Status: 14 September 2026, version 1.2.4.

Copyright (C) 2026 Denise Hollstein, scinet studio.

License URI: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html

Licensing decision
------------------

On 14 September 2026 the project owner instructed all of her own plugins,
including scinet Glossary, to use GPL-2.0-or-later. This project implements that
instruction. The confirmed publisher name is Denise Hollstein, scinet studio.

The earlier candidate reports treated absent historical version control and
license files as an unresolved rights blocker. Those absences do not by
themselves identify third-party code or contradict the owner's license
instruction. Source inspection has not identified a specific copied component
or conflicting third-party license. No independent authorship certification is
claimed. Any later identified third-party component must retain its applicable
license and copyright notices.

Bundled component inventory
---------------------------

- No Composer or npm runtime dependency.
- No bundled vendor or node_modules code.
- No bundled font, image, icon, media or minified third-party library.
- PHP, JavaScript and CSS source is included directly.
- POT and PO translation sources accompany the compiled German MO catalog.
- The dashicons-book-alt identifier uses WordPress's own Dashicons.
- schema.org URLs are JSON-LD vocabulary identifiers, not remote requests.
- The optional DANKE link appears in the readme and is only opened by a user.
- The GPL license text retains the Free Software Foundation copyright notice.

This document records the project decision and technical inventory. It does
not apply this license to unrelated repositories or unidentified third-party
works.
