So you expect user to read the all source code and get confused finding some source start like this. This is not a case where GUI code is showing copyright in the HELP screen. Also if the user thinks this is released in last year, he does not loose anything next 49 years. (It is updated last year, stating last year here is correct. Upstream is not bothered to assert this year only. Smart user can find out when this code is updated in changelog which is dated this year. > This makes it a minor bug.

As upstream stated, asserting required by old US law is history. This is not needed under Berne convention any more.

FYI: I have not got anything like that but only got annoying post to here. I guess I should stop responding this thread unless someone with solid reference tells me I am clearly wrong ... Let's fix real bug. I have RC bug and outdated libraries ... Please send me real patch fixing real patch. Osamu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
