I second that, having a more permissive license on that file would make a lot more sense. You need that or a similar file in basically any software project using OR1K, so all a too restrictive license do is prevent people from using openrisc. Unfortunately, that file has been composed by a large number of people over the year, so I don't think we can change the license of _that_ file without their permission. Tracking people down just to get a non-gpl license on that file seems like a lot of trouble though. That's why I suggested on IRC to make a "cleanroom" version of it by generating a new file from e.g. https://github.com/openrisc/mor1kx/blob/master/rtl/verilog/mor1kx-sprs.v Stefan _______________________________________________ OpenRISC mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openrisc.net/listinfo/openrisc
