I guess it is 2. in above that you feel dictates keeping copyright and licensing together. I believe it only dictates reproducing copyright and licensing verbatim, which is satisfied even if separately. I consider the string "All rights reserved." irrelevant to reproduce. If you disagree then I believe the correct place is in License field. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
