From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Scott Wood Date: Wed, 02 Sep 2009 16:58:00 -0500 Subject: [U-Boot] "All rights reserved" in drivers/mtd/nand/nand_util.c Message-ID: <4A9EEA68.2080203@freescale.com> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: u-boot@lists.denx.de Hi Guido, A while back you added nand_util.c to U-Boot, with a copyright statement of "Copyright (C) 2006 by Weiss-Electronic GmbH. All rights reserved." At best the "All rights reserved" clause is meaningless, and at worst it is in conflict with the statement that the code is licensed under the GPL. Wolfgang Denk has taken the latter interpretation, and is threatening to remove code from the repository that contains this phrase. Are you authorized to remove the "All rights reserved" clause on behalf of Weiss-Electronic GmbH? If so, please submit a patch doing so. If not, and you can't find someone who can, it looks like we'll have to replace the code. Thanks, Scott
