Sorry about this ! I was speaking about the debian/copyright file. You
can see it here directly:

http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/packages/micromanager/trunk/debian/copyright?view=markup

As you see this is a very long task, esp. in the case of micromanager
as some file are missing copyright info from the first few lines of a
file. Sometimes you have to read every single files from within a
directory to get all copyright files info. Basically what I was asking
is if anyone upstream had either done the work already or is willing
to participate :)

indeed !

> What do you mean with "main class"?  MMCoreJ.jar contains the Micro-Manager Core (written in C++) "translated" to Java by Swig.  It is not an application in itself, you could think about it as a library.  The Micro-Manager user interface is contained in MMJ_.jar.

Here is what get when I try to run the main jar file:

$ java -jar /usr/share/java/MMCoreJ.jar
Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
/usr/share/java/MMCoreJ.jar

Does this mean anything to you ?

Thanks,
