I'll come up with a potential solution soon, including all suggestions that have been made so far, particularly the 4 mode procedures. You will then give your opinion. If you agree, great. If you don't, we'll then see if we'll use the derivative work *instead* of original. There won't be two versions of same files from functional point of view in jallib repository. > Let me be clear -- I am not advocating that we make any major changes > to the way things are being done here at JALLIB, but only that we > realize that the author of a work retains some rights to his works > that are published in JALLIB. > Sure.
