Hello all, taking on the latest version of ITK (4.10) I've realized that the copyright statement is quite outdated, i.e. it is mostly a copy of what the original tarball provides that misses quite some parts - from the looks of it most of these are in the Modules/ThirdParty directory.
Now considering that much of the code in there is not really used I wonder whether for clarity of the d/copyright file it would be better to sacrifice the compatibility with the upstream tar ball and remove the code copies of those embedded libraries that are not actually used. It is certainly not what the DFSG-repackaging is designed for, but VTK also does it, and the alternative is a really large copyright file that duplicates a lot of work. For instance the embedded GDCM carries yet another set of embedded libraries that are already documented in the GDCM package (e.g. these GDCM-embedded library copyrights are not yet documented in ITK). What do you think about this? Best, Gert PS: I will be mostly off-line from tomorrow until the 19/6.
