Re: reiserfsprogs-3.6.9 release

[Oleg Drokin <green@namesys.com>]

Hello!

   BTW, it seems one other important change was omissed in the short summary below.
   The license on the reiserfsprogs package was changed from GPLv2 to
   GPLv2 with additional restriction that I quote below:
=======================
ReiserFSprogs is hereby licensed under the GNU General Public License
version 2 but with the following "Anti-Plagiarism" modification:
You may not remove any credits or brand marks, or cause them to not
display, unless you are an end user (that is, you are not
redistributing to others).  Yes, there really are people with the
nerve to remove credits from software they did not write, or only
wrote a small part of, and they are even frequently occurring sad to
say.  Credits are not ads, credits describe someone's contribution to
the project (e.g. labor or money) whereas an ad says something else.
=======================

Bye,
    Oleg
