Subject: [PATCH 0 of 2] Relicense libxc under LGPL 2.1
Date: Mon, 23 Aug 2010 09:23:57 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <patchbomb.1282551837@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
As previously discussed we would like to relicense libxc under the
LGPL.
http://blog.xen.org/index.php/2010/07/26/xen-org-source-code-license-change-request/
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2010-07/msg01378.html
We have now managed to track down all but one of the necessary
contributors in order to make this change and all have given their OK
to the change.
Due to the missing contributor (who we do not expect we will be able
to find) we have taken the decision to remove the xc_ptrace
functionality. It is currently unused, the last remaining user having
been replaced by gdbsx. Should this code be required in the future it
can be recovered from mercurial history and reinstated as a separate
library.
Many thanks to Stephen Spector who offered to help track down all of
the contributors and who did much of the leg work in rounding up all
the acknolwedgements of the change.
