Really; esp since it becomes GPL anyway sort of when it's distributed as part of the kernel.. About bugfixes; I'd recommend using something like: Alternatively, the contents of this file may be used under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 2 (the "GPL"), in which case the provisions of the GPL are applicable instead of the above. If you wish to allow the use of your version of this file only under the terms of the GPL and not to allow others to use your version of this file under the BSD license, indicate your decision by deleting the provisions above and replace them with the notice and other provisions required by the GPL. If you do not delete the provisions above, a recipient may use your version of this file under either the BSD or the GPL. like the pcmcia code does; eg you say "if you send me stuff I assume it's dual licensed too unless you indicate otherwise". --mSxgbZZZvrAyzONB Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAYCPMxULwo51rQBIRAgRxAJ410hF4IQp//nYwwM4k94nabswofwCeJDwr r91KUD89jLMnKqYr1RCCoXo= =OVuG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --mSxgbZZZvrAyzONB-- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
