[PATCH] [media] usbtv: clarify the licensing

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



OpenBSD would like to reuse some code but consider the licensing not
clear enough. Let's clarify it a bit so that it suits their conventions:

1.) Keep the "extra text" away from the copyright statement and the
rights grant.

2.) Add the warranty disclaimer -- it should not be legally required,
nevertheless the clause 1. of the rights grant refest to it.
