Hi all,

I want to port the program "tree-puzzle" (www.tree-puzzle.de). The 
problem is, it is copyrighted (but source is available). The next 
problem ist, I will have to apply three small changes to the source code 
(rename "radixsort" to "radix_sort" in two files). Would that already be 
a problem since it is a change to copyrighted code? Do I have to ask 
author's permission to integreate the program at all when source is 
freely available (from different sites and without regestration).

Many thanks in advance,


Jan Lentfer
