Fine by me. Are there any examples of such man page notes I can use as a template? Any suggestions on wording? > 2) Not really architectural, but you indicate that this is released > under GPLv1. Yes, that's what ./COPYING says. From the other hand, `cvs --version` does not specify GPL version and README (to which source code refers) allows to use "any later version"; to add to the mess, some source files are not even GPL.
From what I understand, we can assume that it's GPLv2 safe and I added "GPLv2 only" disclaimer to package copyright file. Also, see below for legal info. > If so, are there are any other GPLv1 software in OpenSolaris? Maybe > this needs a special case of legal review?
