I understand the issue. I was being slightly tongue-in-cheek, but mostly referring to the clean-slate proposal where we pick a license and build a new LinuxCNC out of the parts of code with clear ownership. I wanted to indicate I am open to changing the license on anything I've written to whatever works best for the project. ...and I don't think there has been much editing of the code I've written by anyone besides myself, although that is obviously prone to change if the new ARM stuff stays around for a while. - -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlG0TV0ACgkQLywbqEHdNFwHEQCfWj8kiZGH9yzZcHgn5pf3oBQs lE4An3cPwuP9AsS9LRkR4Wjz+Zqsbr66 =Hlqu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How ServiceNow helps IT people transform IT departments: 1.
