The copyright holders may always do this at their discretion, since the authority to issue licences rests entirely with them. If I release a piece of software under licence X, I am not bound by the terms of licence X. The same applies to a group of copyright holders if they all agree. IANAL either, but this is my fairly firm understanding of what a licence means. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
