Hi Joe,

I have just checked in wsprdaemon V2.10e which adds display of the GPL
license and an acknowledgement of its dependence on WSJT-x  each time it is
started and it the -h help menu.
In addition, we have modified the wsprdaemon.org home web page to include
that information as well.
Please let me know if these changes are not sufficient to meet the GPL
requirements.

I'm sorry for the delays in making those changes.
I am leading a volunteer project to bring high speed Internet access to
rural native Hawaiinan students so they can join their Zoom class when
school resumes next Monday.  As a result,  WD work is currently my second
priority.

73,

Rob
