I still don't know why you think this GPL clause has something to do with invariant sections... GPL only says: "to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License." This only says I must include a copyright notice, a warranty notice and a where-to-get-the-license notice. And *doesn't say I must present them in the same way the original author did, and not even with the same text*... Even if the original author popped up a dialog box with a long text asking the user to press OK, I still can display 3 lines (that's all needed to satisfy this clause) with an text by myself in a splash screen. And only if it's an interative program. There is nothing here that looks like invariant sections. daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
