Since the Cogl 1.18 branch is actively maintained in parallel with the
master branch; this is a counter part to commit 1b83ef938fc16b which
re-licensed the master branch to use the MIT license.
This re-licensing is a follow up to the proposal that was sent to the
Cogl mailing list:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cogl/2013-December/001465.html
Note: there was a copyright assignment policy in place for Clutter (and
therefore Cogl which was part of Clutter at the time) until the 11th of
June 2010 and so we only checked the details after that point (commit
0bbf50f905)
For each file, authors were identified via this Git command:
$ git blame -p -C -C -C20 -M -M10 0bbf50f905..HEAD
We received blanket approvals for re-licensing all Red Hat and Collabora
contributions which reduced how many people needed to be contacted
individually:
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cogl/2013-December/001470.html
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cogl/2014-January/001536.html
Individual approval requests were sent to all the other identified authors
who all confirmed the re-license on the Cogl mailinglist:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cogl/2014-January
As well as updating the copyright header in all sources files, the
COPYING file has been updated to reflect the license change and also
document the other licenses used in Cogl such as the SGI Free Software
License B, version 2.0 and the 3-clause BSD license.
This patch was not simply cherry-picked from master; but the same
methodology was used to check the source files.
Since we now have more time to ensure that Clutter is updated to check
for the now separate cogl-path package as part of its build
configuration we are now making the package split, in line with Cogl
master.

This splits out the cogl_path_ api into a separate cogl-path sub-library
like cogl-pango and cogl-gst. This enables developers to build Cogl with
this sub-library disabled if they don't need it which can be useful when
its important to keep the size of an application and its dependencies
down to a minimum. The functions cogl_framebuffer_{fill,stroke}_path
have been renamed to cogl_path_{fill,stroke}.
There were a few places in core cogl and cogl-gst that referenced the
CoglPath api and these have been decoupled by using the CoglPrimitive
api instead. In the case of cogl_framebuffer_push_path_clip() the core
clip stack no longer accepts path clips directly but it's now possible
to get a CoglPrimitive for the fill of a path and so the implementation
of cogl_framebuffer_push_path_clip() now lives in cogl-path and works as
a shim that first gets a CoglPrimitive and uses
cogl_framebuffer_push_primitive_clip instead.
We may want to consider renaming cogl_framebuffer_push_path_clip to
put it in the cogl_path_ namespace.

(cherry picked from commit 8aadfd829239534fb4ec8255cdea813d698c5a3f)
So as to avoid breaking the 1.x API or even the ABI since we are quite
late in the 1.16 development cycle the patch was modified to build
cogl-path as a noinst_LTLIBRARY before building cogl and link the code
directly into libcogl.so as it was previously. This way we can wait
until the start of the 1.18 cycle before splitting the code into a
separate libcogl-path.so.
This also adds shims for cogl_framebuffer_fill/stroke_path() to avoid
breaking the 1.x API/ABI.
