I think it is like the SVN trunk. We initially bring it all in, and then remove the copyleft parts. Of course if we can remove them before hand, that is good as well. But whatever order we do the work, we cannot release until we've done the IP review. The files are currently hosted here: http://hg.services.openoffice.org/binaries/ Since the build currently depends on that, I think we want to move those files now, to Apache, rather than wait too long. -Rob > 2) This will all have to be registered in the NOTICE file, > but since this is transitory and not really stuff we use in > base, we should start a new section there to separate it from > the stuff we do use in the core system. > 3) We should probably move some of the stuff in soltools > there too (mkdepend). > 4) I know you want ucpp there too, but since that stuff is > used in idlc, I think I'd prefer it in idlc/source/preproc/ > as it was before.
