--- Comment #17 from abebeos at lazaridis dot com ---
Things look well, me being on 2 parallel solution paths:

a) using https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=92729#c6 as a foundation.

b) focusing more on a from-scratch work (cc0 elimination based on m68k
solution).

I case of a), what would be the (legal) process to contribute a patch (which is
based on code NOT YET contributed to the gcc project)? My understanding is that
the original author can e.g. place the code into the public-domain, see: 

https://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html#legal

so I can modify and contribute it later using the standard procedures
(copyright assignment or again, placing the modified/extended code it into
public domain).


I'd like to avoid investing more time into a) and falling then into kind of a
copyright trap.
