@dstansby:matrix.org | thanks - I'll look into it, I didn't realise that in practice GPL-3 had these issues | 14:06:44 |
Cadair | it's a great licence, but given most of the scipy ecosystem is BSD (for good or ill) it makes it difficult to collaborate | 14:07:30 |
Cadair | the gpl is the main reason we haven't released sunkit-image yet | 14:07:48 |
Cadair | because I haven't wrapped my head around it | 14:08:00 |
Cadair | We should schedule a session at the sunpy coordination meeting about the heliopy / sunpy integration | 14:19:24 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | In reply to @cadair:cadair.com We should schedule a session at the sunpy coordination meeting about the heliopy / sunpy integration yes, good idea | 14:25:11 |
Cadair | and then consider how we are finding the money / time to work on it 😁 | 14:36:40 |
@namurphy:matrix.org | A while back, I asked a friend who is extremely active in the open source community about which open source license should be used for PlasmaPy. Her suggestion was to use the license that was most commonly used in the community we were working in. Since Astropy and SunPy are BSD 2-clause or 3-clause, that's what we originally ended up going with. | 20:41:17 |
@namurphy:matrix.org | And it's super exciting to hear prospects for heliopy/sunpy integration! | 20:42:48 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | Yes - it's been floating around in the back of my mind for a bit actually. If we can get the one-liner data loading working in SunPy, then I think that would remove one of my biggest personal blockers to integration | 20:52:07 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | having a one stop shop for remote and in-situ data would be amazing | 20:53:16 |

@dstansby:matrix.org | In case anyone is interested I've managed to speed up CDF file loading by ~100x (!!!!!) today, hopefully coming soon to a release near you... | 16:24:52 |
Cadair | 👀 | 16:25:15 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | turns out arrays are faster than for loops! | 16:26:45 |
@wtbarnes:matrix.org | who knew 😂 | 16:27:43 |

haider_aabbas | Hi everyone! My name is haider. I am here to join this community of open source contributers and become part of them by contributing in HelioPy by using my full scale skills. I found HelioPy very amusing project as I've been fond of space related stuff since my childhood. Looking forward to help some help and guidance regarding my first contribution. Kind Regards Have a nice day | 16:37:25 |

@dstansby:matrix.org | Hi haider_aabbas , thanks for getting in touch! I'm afraid at the moment all our issues are either being worked on, or require non-trivial fixes that I need some time to think about the best way to solve them. I think you migh be better looking in open astronomy for a project with more active development and more active developers to contribute too - it looks like you've already done this, so good luck finding something to do, and sorry I couldn't help much at the moment! | 14:24:54 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | If anyone is interested re. the HelioPy license, I have agreement from the 4 major contributors and a couple of the 8 other minor contributors to change from GPL to BSD. I will chase the other contributors up, but even if I don't hear back these contributions are minor enough to work around (ie. remove - I need to look into and double check this is fine), so I am optimistic that a license change can happen in the near future. | 14:29:02 |
Cadair | dstansby are you getting that agreement in the open somewhere? | 14:30:22 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | no, just private email currently | 14:32:02 |
Cadair | It's worth recording in the repo somewhere imo | 14:32:34 |
Cadair | i.e. opening a PR and getting people to approve it | 14:32:42 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | 👍️ sounds sensible | 14:33:42 |
