Useful, but dangerous. Unless he is willing to sign some form of contract that his contributions to the Trac project are given freely and without copyright, license, etc I think we should consider any input from him as a potential hazard. Like I said, if these things are real issues, other people will raise them. The Trac community is not so small that I think he is necessary. --Noah --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Development" group.
