Well, because several people had reservations concerning the quite
"impressive" copyright notices at the top of the MAGMA source files, I
try to get an official statement/file from MAGMA to clarify the
situation. In the meantime I draw on the mail correspondence with Chuck
Brost (MAGMA), who wrote:
"The only thing I ask is that you put your name on it (of course you can
give us credit for supplying the original source code) and contact
information in case someone has a problem with it, since I am not able
to assist them at this point. Just so long as it goes out as your
version of the driver, then I have no problems with whatever else you
may do."
So, which license would be the closest match? GPL? BSD? Neither nor?
And if I had to suggest MAGMA a license type, which license should I
recommend? BSD?
