Will give Carl another day (he was on vacation, don't know if he is back), but I don't think it is worth waiting beyond that - all important legal aspects are covered: boost license for relevant function which must explicitly be there verbatim, and copyright notice. Where to place them is really secondary - I have seen FOSS projects with such copyright given "inline" if it is for a single function. > > [...] > -- > Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB > > Let us carefully observe those good qualities wherein our enemies excel us > and endeavor to excel them, by avoiding what is faulty, and imitating what > is excellent in them. -- Plutarch > > _______________________________________________ > ffmpeg-devel mailing list > ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org > http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel > _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
