No, that's wrong. As soon as someone contributes a patch that is accepted, he contributes it to some license. In most cases, this will be the license that was current at the time he sent the patch, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Thus, even the owner cannot change the license in most cases without asking everyone who ever contributed even one single line. > The less painful options are these: > 1 - Leave as it is and simply say no to Lubomir > 2 - Make him use the GNUtls version of centerim > 3 - Work to add support to NSS Yes, I too believe these are the options. You (the centerim project) most probably will not be able to change the license in a manner that this change will stand in court, anyway. Regards, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
