I'm about to release a new version of Trollop, and I'm happy to add such a clause. However, the *actual* license of Trollop, despite what trollop.rb says, is what's in the README.txt: "Trollop is distributed under the same terms as Ruby". Ruby is distributed under GPL v2 *or* a bunch of special clauses: http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/LICENSE.txt. So based on whether that license is acceptable to GPLv3 or not, I will update the readme to have an explicit clause for ditz or not. And either way, I will update trollop.rb to match the readme. Hope I'm not being overly difficult. :) -- William <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ ditz-talk mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ditz-talk
