- It was never explictly released as GPL, as that would have required
- including the file COPYING which would have been much larger than the
- actual MAKEDEV script (I was also too lazy to find out what incantations
- needed to be made). However, it is intended to be used as anyone sees
- fit, and the statement under "Copying Policy" is "Freely Redistributable"
- (see MAKEDEV.lsm from any of the releases I made).
-
- The more recent modifications were done by Michael K. Johnson at
- Redhat. I think the understanding was that he would be taking over the
- maintenance of MAKEDEV (our discussion took place last September).
-
- The only previous history was (according to an old posting to
- comp.os.linux) that I started with Jim Winstead's script.
-
- So, as far as I am concerned, it is consistentwith the Debian FSG.
