So does this mean that no ASF project can release any code until we get this resolved *and* that they all incorporate those changes to fix the copyright notice changes? I'm not being a pain, I'm really curious. If so, then that's a major thing and (1) we better be fully sure, and actually have real legal advice on it and (2) inform the PMCs. If the issue is that we know that the copyright notices may have issues, then that's a universal concern, with all projects, since I'm pretty confident that they have all done substantially the same thing. -- =========================================================================== Jim Jagielski [|] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [|] http://www.jaguNET.com/ "If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball."
