I have developed modifications to Conor Cahill's marvelous malloc debugging replacement which allows it to run in a VMS VAXCRTL replacement. I would like to submit these mods to Conor for inclusion with the package he submits to comp.sources. Part of these mods were creating a transfer vector source to allow building the RTL itself. In the fiche (I'll be truthful, I typed it in from there but we have it legally so this was ok, at least for us), this module is copyrighted by DEC. My question is: can I legally include the transfer vector, assuming I include the DEC copyright notice. I'm willing to entertain any reasonable requirements DEC may find it necessary to impose. Also, if I am violating DEC licensing policy or copyrights now, please let me know - my reading of the appropriate licenses/copyrights leads me to believe I am not. I am speaking as an individual here and cannot bind my employer in any way. Please respond by Email and I will summarize the resultant opinion. Thanks. -- Charles Mattair mattair@synercom.hounix.org Any opinions offered are my own and do not reflect those of my employer. Cheap, fast, good - choose two.
