Here by I assign copyrights of the (rubbish) patch (f5d41a2..b14583d 100644) I wrote to The Regents of the University of California. If that is not good enough throw the patch to thrash bin where it belongs. If there are these 'copyrights has to be assigned' bombs in util-linux-ng I propose that they would be listed in README.devel with instructions how to fulfill qualifications of contributing. Yes, I admit, there is that general copyright notice in source file, but I did not realize I have to assign my rights to somewhere. Is fair to say a newbie would never understand to do that without more specific instructions? -- Sami Kerola http://www.iki.fi/kerolasa/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux-ng" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
