He doesn't need to change the license, but rather just to clarify *which* BSD license. The original BSD license had an advertizing clause which was incompatible with the GPL licenses. The Revised BSD (aka 3-clause BSD) and the further simplified 2-clause BSD licenses are both GPL-compatible. Given the relatively young age of the code in question, it is likely that he means the Revised BSD anyway, so it only should need clarification. With such a clarification, there shouldn't be any reason to use the code as the basis for a GIMP plugin or patch. But do ask that he add a Copyright line to the .c file. -JimC -- James Cloos <cloos@xxxxxxxxxxx> OpenPGP: 1024D/ED7DAEA6 _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
