This would be the fourth or fifth patch from Yaakov. The FSF considers about 15 lines nontrivial, and yes, you can assume individual additions to sum up, even if each of them is trivial. > But IANAL, so... Me neither. I'm not making up these rules either, so please discuss them with the FSF if you have an issue with them. If you need a pointer to the request for copyright assignment files, or who to discuss with, please ping me off-list. Thanks, Ralf
