Hi,

I have a very minor change to make to one of the zlib header files (in
depends\oss\zlib_1.2.3.zip) for z/OS only. Does anybody know if there are
any legal implications for making this change? I see the license header
says:

 2. Altered source versions must be plainly marked as such, and must not be
misrepresented as being the original software.

Do you think it would be enough for me to put a simple comment before my
change indicating the modification?

Regards,
Oliver
