Follow-up Comment #9, task #9014 (project administration): Okay, the below changes are fine, except instead of making using the Copyright (c) 2003 - 2005 Andy Jeffries it should say Copyright (c) 2003, 2004, 2005 Andy Jeffries

I was trying to say that I think that those changes to the gtkscintilla files and the idea of adding the BSD licenses for the authors of the scintilla files are not good to do. This is my opinion. If you do not think it would harm the project to remove the gtkscintilla and scintilla directories, then please do. I think it would be a better idea to look at the position that you may have to rewrite this project anyways because there are few dependencies that might need upgrading to the new versions. Gnome VFS is going through deprecation http://library.gnome.org/devel/gnome-vfs-2.0/ GTK+, GTKHTML, libgnomeui are actually LGPL. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?9014> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
