Robert Nation has already been widely acknowledged for the foundations he provided. This change neither detracts from that, nor changes it, and I see nothing different that needs to happen as a result. > Regarding the license things, I would be glad if a way could be found > that current versions could be bundled with OpenBSD and other FOSS > BSDs... That's a separate issue. Though I'd prefer a BSD-style license, FVWM was originally in that situation, hence how OpenBSD was originally able to siphon off 2.x.y in base. But this change about Copyright doesn't apply here either. FVWM remains under the terms of the GPL, as-is. Please don't ever conflate these things again. -- Thomas Adam
