Eric, surely we can use whatever we decide as "email" as long as it fit's the syntax or? as all of these are sf.net users we could simply use the @users.sourceforge.net . ..ede On 11.08.2020 11:50, Eric wrote: > The problem is that email addresses are required to be able to keep the > authors

Hi, JTS is dual-licensed under: - Eclipse Public License 2.0 - Eclipse Distribution License 1.0 (a BSD Style License) This second licence, if BSD style, should normally be compatible with the GPL one. Eric On 11/08/2020 11:28, edgar.sol...@web.de wrote: hey All, just noticed that locationt
