List of post-2-12 Dawes code and X-Oz code in X.org repo HEAD



This lists code by David Dawes which is not in the 'sanitized' tree prepared
by Branden, but is in the x.org tree.  This would be the code with potential
X-Oz/XFree86 1.1 license issues.

The notes here note the commits for the XFree86 repo.  In the X.org repo,
most of these appear to have been introduced by these commits:
 18. Merged in XFree86 code up to 4.4.0 including changes to files that
     had a changed license. There was only one change which happened to
     be from me (Egbert Eich).
  23.  Merged with XFree86 4.4.0. Added changes that went into infected
       files. Reverted darwin/bundle/**/Credits.rtf to XFree86 versions
       to avoid future conflicts on ASCII but not humal readable files.
       (There should probably be separate CreditsXorg.rtf files)
       (Egbert Eich).

The exception is the X-Oz commit, which was already present and is probably
the biggest hunk of problem code.

Please feel free to forward this to any list which is appropriate.

  Commits by Dawes.  But I'm unsure.  Are these autogenerated from
  something else?

Other files modified by Dawes;
possibly (not necessarily) copyrightable
----------------------------------------
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/etc/bindist/Linux-amd64
(directory)
  An entire new directory committed by Dawes.  Commit logs claim the
  entire mess to be under the XFree86 1.1 license.

  The only way I can see that this would be safe is if it's autogenerated.

xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/etc/Xinstall.sh
  Revisions 1.69-1.73, David Dawes.
  Significant functional changes.  Includes XFree86 1.1 notice on one commit.

xc/config/cf/Imake.rules
  Revision 3.129, David Dawes
  Introduces a new #define'd routine.
  Apparently only affects Speedo fonts

xc/config/cf/X11.tmpl
  Revisions 1.248, 1.249, David Dawes
  Adds logic (about 8 lines).
  Apparently only affects Speedo fonts

xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc/sgml/README.sgml

  (Commit 3.140 is by Georgina Economou, plus trivialities)

xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc/sgml/RELNOTES.sgml
  Commit 1.116 by dawes, adding 'known problems' section
  (Commit 1.115 is by Georgina Economou, plus trivialities)

The rest of this message is purely informational since I think the rest of
this is OK.

By Dawes, probably not copyrightable
------------------------------------
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/neomagic/neo_driver.c
  Revision 1.75, David Dawes.  Replacement of hex constant in three
  places (1A -> A1).

xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/etc/bindist/NetBSD-aout-ix86/bin-list
  Revision 1.11, David Dawes.  Changes two .so versions.

xc/config/cf/apollo.cf
  Revision 1.2, David Dawes

  Use of $(NROFF)$(MANMACROS) instead of 'nroff -man';
  removed dependency

xc/fonts/scaled/Speedo/Imakefile
  Revision 1.7, David Dawes
  One-line 'workaround'

  These dawes commits appear to contain two things:
  * trivial date changes and standard release branch prep
  * doc changes by Georgina Economou
  (README.sgml and RELNOTES.sgml have other changes noted above.)

By Dawes, but apparently already absent from X.org
--------------------------------------------------
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc/sgml/LICENSE.sgml
  Revisions 1.24 through 1.32 mostly by Dawes.  I didn't check them all,
  but there are some major changes.
  This was not merged from XFree86 after the cutoff date, so it's OK.
