We all shoulder some blame on that, as we've had a relatively bad track record on attaching our own copyrights to things: for example, this http://sourceforge.net/p/apertium/svn/HEAD/tree/incubator/apertium-sco/apertium-sco.sco.dix (which is based on work exclusively done by me in 2009) was relicensed to GPL3 without my permission, but I never added any sort of AUTHOR file or copyright notice. Not that the absence of such information in any way grants permission to relicense (in fact, the opposite is true), but, hey, I'm just as guilty as anyone else. (For the record, I retroactively relicense my work on that and related files to CC0, so nothing need be changed). -- <Sefam> Are any of the mentors around? <jimregan> yes, they're the ones trolling you ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Want fast and easy access to all the code in your enterprise?
