You asked for opinions. I gave my opinion. I am one person, and what I say has little or nothing to do with whether your code will be committed. However, realize that when you ask for a review of a patch, you are going to get all softs of comments on the style, whitespace changes, printfs, or copyright modifications (particularly if it's not obvious whether the code is significant enough to constitute a copyrightable derivative work. > Of course that the FreeBSD code will not have my name, and company! > That is the code that i did for MY company!

FreeBSD could not, in good conscience, rip off your code without giving you the credit you asked for in your patch. I think that the community would be willing to take responsibility for any bugs that it was willing to commit to the source tree. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
