Hello mingw-w64 fellows,

I want to copy two functions ConvertStringToBSTR and
ConvertBSTRToString to mingw-w64 to create a comsupp library. But
there is something about license which prevents the addition. How can
I copy the code without any issue?
What license would be acceptable to you?
MIT? BSD? Or does it even need to be CC0?

We have a history of cooperating and relicensing code when it makes sense. In this case, a quick look into the git history of commsupp.cpp (with the --follow option) reveals that the copyright of this file is exclusively held by:

- Hermès Bélusca-Maïto <[email protected]>
- Thomas Faber <[email protected]>

Even though commsupp.cpp is almost a decade old, both developers are still active in the ReactOS Project. If you say what license suits you, we could open a PR to publicly relicense commsupp.cpp and ask Hermès and Thomas for approval.


Best regards,

Colin Finck
