I'm not arguing against that.

I appreciate your debugging work. Nonetheless, I think most contributors of patches usually let their code be included under the pertinent project license, and are satisfied with an acknowledgement in the changelog, or, after accumulating a substantial amount of contributed work, in the regular AUTHORS file or similar. I would greatly appreciate it if you could do the same, because when code is submitted under different licenses it can, at least eventually, become rather messy to keep track of what parts of the package can be used under what license. -- Magnus Holmgren [EMAIL PROTECTED]
