Okay, but if any of them are portable fixes, it would be better to get them in 2.12 itself. > > Usual practice is that whatever a single file's copyright line states > overrides any kind of project-wide license file or agreement.

Given the history of the files, I believe we are safe. There are a few files which I have included which need to remain with their very explicit license (MD5 calculation, expat), but definitely several which have been moved from FG and not updated. There's also a large collection from David Megginson which he placed in the public domain originally, I will ping him and ask his opinion. >> so we can run parts of the stack on Pis, Pandaboards and so on.

Although, since my current buildroot uses ulibc, that would mean discovering all the places in SG+FG where we've assumed glibc. Note we can't run FG itself without major work, since these platforms only support GLES1 or GLES2, and there's many legacy areas of the renderer which would not work. (BTW I believe OSG compiles out of the box on ARM targets now, Android at least, but I didn't try it myself yet) Regards, James ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How ServiceNow helps IT people transform IT departments: 1.
