Re: [Glsdk-devel] Patch submission guidelines and accepting contributions

[H. H. <hen...@gm...>]

Yes. I think we should create a LICENSE file in the root directory and
perhaps list copyrights for each library in the README along with
contributors? Or should we choose a separate file for the copyrights and
contributes from the README? I can do this minor task. I will also setup
some SF.net tracker issues for the GLM (see my other post).
