Well, Mach is what we're talking about now, and if being BSD-licensed
doesn't pose a problem, then why should my contributions be a problem if
they're GPL-licensed?
Please make a decision about the 169 line patch I attached to my earlier
email. You can use it under the GPL, and I'm even willing to assign
copyright on it to the FSF. But it's not going to be "all past and future
work" on Hurd, or gnumach, or anything else.
I think Charlie Sale deserves some clear guidance on whether or not he can
base a new tracing facility on that patch.
