----- The Foundation agrees that all of its distributions of the Transferred Work, or of any work "based on the Transferred Work" (that is any work that in whole or in part incorporates or is derived from all or part of the Transferred Work), shall be under a version of the Foundation's General Public License, Lesser General Public License or Library General Public License (collectively "LGPL"). ----- Nothing about copyright holder status so it doesn't change anything, the FSF is the copyright holder of all the code that goes into GCC (including several other projects). Feel free to grep through the GCC source code. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
