Hi, I've just checked out the ImageJ code a bit and realized that it is "public domain". The statement in the code says:
/* * ImageJ is open-source. You are free to do anything you want * with this source as long as I get credit for my work and you * offer your changes to me so I can possibly add them to the * "official" version. * * @author Wayne Rasband ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) */ There is no license specified there. On their homepage, they say: "Public Domain": http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/docs/intro.html So, in my understanding it would be possible to take the code and put my own license statement there, as long as I mention the name of Wayne Rasband? I would eventually like to take the ImageJ sources and make a ResMedicinae (GPL) module of it. Would I violate anything here?
