Ar an seachtú lá is fiche de mí Lúnasa, scríobh SL Baur: Stephen’s getting paid legal advice on this from Larry Rosen when he gets to California. Rosen’s I-am-a-lawyer-but-I-am-not-your-lawyer opinion was that we can distribute his code nonetheless--because we’re doing it under the GPL, the licence of the original code, and because Choi removed any conditions on the distribution of his code with his public domain declaration. The paid advice is expected to confirm that. I’m not sure what the story is with the copyright notices Choi appears to have removed; AIUI we have to restore them. http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/AkochoiXEmacsGplCompliance is a nice summary I hadn’t seen before. But basically legally-informed opinion is expected to say that we can merge it. Which is kind of the point of a public domain declaration! This should be vetted too. I don’t have that issue; which link are you talking about in particular? -- On the quay of the little Black Sea port, where the rescued pair came once more into contact with civilization, Dobrinton was bitten by a dog which was assumed to be mad, though it may only have been indiscriminating.
