c00c310e - [JFFS2] Tidy up licensing/copyright boilerplate.

Wed, 25 Apr 2007 13:16:47 +0000

[JFFS2] Tidy up licensing/copyright boilerplate.In particular, remove the bit in the LICENCE file about contactingRed Hat for alternative arrangements. Their errant IS department brokethat arrangement a long time ago -- the policy of collecting copyrightassignments from contributors came to an end when the plug was pulled onthe servers hosting the project, without notice or reason.We do still dual-license it for use with eCos, with the GPL+exceptionlicence approved by the FSF as being GPL-compatible. It's just that nobodyhas the right to license it differently.Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse List of files: /linux-6.15/fs/jffs2/README.Locking

1da177e4 - Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Sat, 16 Apr 2005 22:20:36 +0000

Linux-2.6.12-rc2Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" gitarchive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the earlygit days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of goodinfrastructure for it.Let it rip!
