Hi Nathan, The Advanced Contribution page says to use <licenseurl> to specify a license url. I noticed, however, you use <license> to specify a license url in the _meta.xml file, and in the _files.xml you use <license> to specify the whole license claim ( [date] [holder] Licensed to the public under bla bla. verify at [license url]) for each file.
I'm guessing that regardless of what the Advanced Contribution page says, your way will become the de-facto standard as they are pushing the ccPublisher. should I just follow what you're doing? thanks, Tim On 10/10/05, Nathan R.
