Message-ID: <20001001105526.E27736@fw.wintelcom.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.4i Sender: owner-freebsd-advocacy@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG There's a guy distributing our /etc/security "ported to Linux" he has GPL'd the script and not included src/COPYRIGHT with this distribution. http://halliday.wl.vg/scripts/ I don't want anyone to flame the guy to death, I just want to know if this is ok or not? My understanding is that it's ok to GPL our code so long as the original copyright remains intact. So two questions: So can he GPL it? Must he add the src/COPYRIGHT? -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."
