COPYING CONDITIONS
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This is a little complicated. First of all, I hope all things are handled
|
|
correctly. I don't want to bother anyone and I don't want to break any
|
|
copyright terms. If you think I made a mistake, please contact me.

The source code of the FreeMiNT CVS repository is based on several different
|
|
packages with different copying terms. I spent a lot of time lately doing the
|
|
same things on every package I updated over and over again. Furthermore, large
|
|
parts of the code were identical in some of the packages. So my main goal was
|
|
to get rid of such time consuming jobs, making FreeMiNT development much more
|
|
efficient.
|
|
|
|
CVS, a freely available source control system, helped a lot in achieving this
|
|
goal. It handles a unique source base (the CVS master tree) and records every
|
|
change with the exact date, the author and a changelog message. For that to
|
|
work I had to restructure the kernel source, the modules, and the tools into
|
|
one source hierarchy.
|

|
|
|
|
Here now a short summary which parts of the source tree apply to which
|
|
copyright terms.
