I don't know the details of above specific case, but beware that author and copyright holder is not necessarily identical, As I understand it, copyright holders are those claiming copyright over a piece of code, by way of listing the word "copyright" and the claimed year(s) covered and their name together on (typically) a single line. Licensing requires copyright holder(s) to grant it, but being an author does not automatically make you a copyright holder, as I understand it. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
