Annotation of src/gnu/README, Revision 1.1

1.1     ! espie       1: $OpenBSD$
        !             2:
        !             3: Some of the software in this subtree follows special rules.
        !             4:
        !             5: Specifically, the FSF not only wants the GPL licence, but they
        !             6: also insist that you assign your copyright to the FSF for anything
        !             7: but trivial changes.
        !             8:
        !             9: So:
        !            10: - check the history of external code before importing it.
        !            11: - be ready to arrange for copyright papers somewhat in advance if
        !            12: you want to work on it (the FSF takes a few months to process these).
        !            13:
        !            14: Otherwise, changes might not make it to the main distribution, and may
        !            15: need some further maintenance over time, or risk getting lost.
        !            16:
        !            17: Some internal changes are acceptable, but OpenBSD can't afford to maintain
        !            18: a complete separate toolchain on its own.
