It's okay for those files where the copyright is held by the Board of Trustees of the University of California, which likely includes at least strerror.c, strstr.c, memmove.c, and probably mktime.c. If the others are held by a different copyright holder, you can't just change the license. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
