Re: [Savannah-hackers] submission of GLMosaicText - text in OpenGL - savannah.nongnu.org

[Tuomas Lukka]

Hi, could we do this at the time we start checking in the code?

Because we'll have to go through all the source files then
in order to change the packages etc. appropriately and that
would be the logical time to make sure LGPL notices are everywhere,
and the XPL license reference is removed.

Would this be ok?
