The thing is that I don't know how mirrors treat the arrows. Will mirrors save the file using the the normal filename or the one I specified on arrow? If the later, I need to have RESTRICT="nomirror" or something. I took a look on EAPI2 specifications but couldn't find how mirrors behave with arrows. About the licensing issue, i think that the best is to make it dual license cause this is what I get by reading their site over and over again.
If there are no objections, this package will be on tree withing the next 48 hours. Thanks - - Markos Chandras (hwoarang) Gentoo Linux Developer KDE/Qt/Sunrise/Sound Web: http://hwoarang.silverarrow.gr
