If the "original authors" accept a developer's code to be integrated into the BusyBox project they show their intent to include that new contributor as a joint author.
No, that's completely wrong. The new developers prepare work distributed under the GPL, distribute it to the original developers, and those developers prepare a derivative work based on the original program and the new piece, and distribute that under the GPL. No one is creating a joint work. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
