There was no licence actually, i have forgot it. Thanks God for it! This my mistake makes killing portindex very easy. Copyright laws disables use and distribuition unless you have permission from by author, which you don't have. > as portindex is a great program and many people (myself included) started to > like it (and use it). Yes. This is the main reason why project was dropped. I dislike when some of MY material activity becomes too successful. It will screw up my spiritual life because I am not very strong in that area. Spiritual life is so sweet, that after you have tasted it, you will throw out anything just for keeping it. Anything includes even topmost material pleasures like money, sex, fame, alcohol, meat, family, friends, own life. > But I could take maintainership for the port, if that would help! This will not solve the main problem. Folks, portindex is now history. I am now playing with writeable ufs2 snapshots.
