Hello, I'm the upstream and Debian maintainer for psmisc. One of the tools in psmisc is fuser and I have had some requests to make it act more like POSIX fuser is supposed to do.
Specifically http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/utilities/fuser.html the STDOUT and STDERR bits are useful and not too hard to implement. I'd like to do these things but a bit worried about the POSIX copyright. i'll probably add/modify some flags so they comply too. Can I implement these features, using my own code and not having seen a POSIX implementation, without causing any problems for me (which I don't mind that much) and for Debian (which I mind a lot). My guess is that any obstruction to me implementing some POSIX compliance would be actually counter to what it is all about but I though I'd check. I'm not on debian-legal so please CC me. - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.enc.com.au/ MIEE Debian developer csmall at : enc.com.au ieee.org debian.org
