If you look at the recent mailing list archives, you will find that a particular snapshot of the git tree was relicensed by the original copyright holder (Transmeta?) under the MIT license. It seems the current developers intend to check with the other copyright holders (for code commited after the particular relicensed snapshot) for a license change. So I would you suggest at least using the MIT license to not "pollute" the code with yet another license... The developers might need to confirm this, I'm just on "monitoring mode" here currently :) Regards, -- Anderson Lizardo Instituto Nokia de Tecnologia (INdT) Manaus - Brazil
