Good to know! I tried to track down the origins of the selection
handlers, but it looks like most of them go back to,

     Merge LibCSS port to trunk.

     svn path=/trunk/netsurf/; revision=8752

where the trail goes cold.

Yes -- they didn't exist before then (as libcss didn't either -- at least not as far as NetSurf is concerned!)

It just occurred to me, though, that if the
selection handlers are factored out into a separate library, that
there would be no problem with licensing that library under the GPLv2
and then linking to it.

If it's only myself and Michael, then I doubt there's a problem (like Michael, I've no objection for any of my code in this area being relicensed). What I haven't done, at least, is looked to see who else might have changed this stuff!


John-Mark.
