Both have shuffled me off in reference to the other and to the Legal Counsul's office. However, the basic message I've interpreted is "we don't care." I haven't talked to Legal yet, but my supervisor and I are under the impression that if I work in the capacity of a maintainer, folding in patches and making minor contributions (bug fixes, etc.), that we shouldn't draw the gaze of the legal eye of the U. IOW, there is very little interest in code that is not financially exploitable by the U, so if I don't make major contributions during my time at work, there will be no conflict of interest. I need one more OK before I can commit my work time. I'm still working on the Debian packages at home to bring them up to date. --=20 Chad Walstrom http://www.wookimus.net/ assert(expired(knowledge)); /* core dump */ --zx4FCpZtqtKETZ7O Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline Content-length: 189 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAfVsfDMcLGCBsWv0RAotZAKDchzRvoMYQX9OdnUOC3o1X14foDQCdGIBC bkP3HwPdgz7q3d3+xyux3qg= =xsTT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --zx4FCpZtqtKETZ7O-- --===============0949215680== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Content-length: 139 _______________________________________________ Help-gnats mailing list Help-gnats@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnats --===============0949215680==--
