Theodore Ts'o | 6f4a109 | 1997-04-26 13:32:25 +0000 | [diff] [blame^] | 1 | This package, the EXT2 filesystem utilities, are protected by the GNU |
| 2 | Public License, with the following exception --- |
| 3 | |
| 4 | If the version string in the file version.h contains the words |
| 5 | "WORK IN PROGRESS", then this package must be distributed in |
| 6 | source form only. You can give a copy of the binary for |
| 7 | e2fsck to help a friend recover his or her filesystem, as the |
| 8 | need arises. However, "WORK IN PROGRESS" means exactly that. |
| 9 | The package is in ALPHA testing, and for your protection as |
| 10 | much as mine, I'd rather not have it appear in a some |
| 11 | distribution --- especially not a CD-ROM distribution! |
| 12 | |
| 13 | The most recent officially distributed version can be found on |
| 14 | tsx-11.mit.edu, in /pub/linux/packages/ext2fs. If you need to make a |
| 15 | distribution, that's the one you should use. If there is some reason |
| 16 | why you'd like a more recent version that is still in ALPHA testing |
| 17 | for your distribution, please contact me (tytso@mit.edu), and we can |
| 18 | see if we can't come to an arrangement. The release schedules for |
| 19 | this package are flexible, if you give me enough lead time. |
