I'm not the one calling people names. I wanted to understand the facts but nobody here wants to acknowledge that 3 of those files have *alternative* licensing. I agree fully with you all in the other 5 files which are not dual licensed. The full story I needed to know is clear on those 8 files involved in the diff on lkml you shows us, what I wanted to know is your understanding. I see now you seem to pretend that GPLv2 can't be chosen for those 3 files. > > The copyright notice tells the user he can choose between two licenses. > > If you choose the GNU GPL vs, you can't later on change to BSD or > > proprietary for that would be a copyright violation. > > > > *Copyright notice != license* > > I am glad you are so sure, so confident.

If on those three files that are dual licensed, I'm wrong, I'll donate 50 EUR to OpenBSD. I also encourage those who agree with me to do so as well. If you're wrong, you'll say sorry, publicly, ok? Again, I'm talking only about the 3 files that are dual licensed, since on the other 5 I agree with you, fully. Rui -- P'tang!
