Hello

I would like to distribute the cvs release with patch in reply to the feature request 415.

https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/feature-requests/415/


Copyright says:

 *   1. distribute the corresponding source modifications from the
 *    released version in the form of a patch file along with the binaries,
 *   2. add special version identification to distinguish your version
 *    in addition to the base release version number,
 *   3. provide your name and address as the primary contact for the
 *    support of your modified version, and
 *   4. retain our contact information in regard to use of the base
 *    software.
 * Permission to distribute the released version of the source code along
 * with corresponding source modifications in the form of a patch file is
 * granted with same provisions 2 through 4 for binary distributions.
 
1. Is the patch should be included in an installer or a zip archive?
 Can I provide the patch in the distribution page?

2. is OK

3. Does "provide your name and address as the primary contact for the support of your modified version,"
 means that information should be addressed startup screen ?
 Is not enough to show contact information on the distribution site? 

4. is OK
