Re: RFA: GPLv3: gcc files


Hi Serge,

/* This package implements ET forest data structure. Each tree in
the structure maintains a tree structure and offers logarithmic time

But not everywhere:

This was because I used a script to replace the text of all the files that did not have the "see the file COPYING" in their copyright header, and the replacement text had been indented to follow the comment formatting conventions. For files which already had the "see the file COPYING" text, I just used a sed script to replace COPYING with COPYING3 without indenting the text afterwards. I thought about indenting the text in those files as well, but that would have taken another couple of hours to do, and made the patch even bigger than it already is.


Cheers
  Nick
