Re: Bug#248853: 3270: 5250 emulation code, all rights reserved
The upstream reply is below... I think I have a copy of some of the
earlier go 'rounds on this - when Carey worked with Paul.
Be careful folks, while Paul is willing to help - I don't think we can
come back on this issue at a later time, we better get it right this
time !

Ahh, the horror continues.
I would be happy to remove all of the Minolta-copyrighted code.
As for the "what this means" paragraph in the Lineage file, that was written
by an idiot, and should be removed (in fact, I thought I had removed it already).
As for the Georgia Tech copyrighted code, I've been through this issue with
them twice over the years, and the "public use" language was something they
suggested. I don't know what it means, either. Shall I give it another go
with them, to see if they will allow a different copyright notice? If so,
what kinds of notices would be acceptable?
