Yes, this is a hassle to have to go through in order to contribute to an open-source project. I wish it were easier too. Please complain to your congress-beings, however, and not to me. I did not make the laws; I'm only trying to comply with them. > > Erik Lechak > ___ > fossil-users mailing list > fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org > http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users > -- - D.

Hello, I wrote the "Behavior" section and am eager to get it back into the trunk. If someone could point me to the "copyright release" agreement, I will gladly sign it. Is there an approved way to contribute to fossil? Erik Lechak ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users

But you did not ask for a release, you asked for an assignment. Not the same thing at all. Which is why you didn't get one from me. I don't particularly care about the license. > The original GPL code line continues in a branch named "gpl". But may I observe that this is pointless if no-one who has not assigned their copyright to you can contribute to it.

[fossil-users] Fossil now uses the Simplified BSD License
The trunk of the Fossil source tree now uses the Simplified (2-clause) BSD License. Code contributions from people for whom I do not have a copyright release on file have been removed from the trunk and "push" privileges for those people have been revoked. The original GPL code line continues in a branch named "gpl". D.
