I think it's a valid assumption, if we say that the author of the patch read the license header of a file and agreed with it. So the patch is licensed to whatever the fileheader says. And if there's none, it's licensed with the COPYING terms. If a patch author likes some other license conditions, he must explicitely add them with the patch to the file, saying that this and that part have these and those conditions. Of course they must be compatible with the original license. -- Greetings Michael. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
