Re: Project management and code quality tools

[Simon Josefsson]

Richard, an issue came up related to gnulib: I want to move a module
from GNUPDF written by Jose E. Marchesi <address@hidden> (I have his
permission to do so).  The code is copyrighted by the FSF, Jose signed
papers for GNUPDF but not gnulib.  Does he need to sign papers again for
gnulib?

I think similar situations may occur with gnulib in the future, so
understanding and documenting the best practices would be good.

Thanks,
Simon
