[Opencernlib-devel] Dual-licensing of Debian CERNLIB patches

[Kevin B. M. <kmc...@gm...>]

To whom it may concern:

I hereby dual-license all of the work that I have done in creating
patches for CERNLIB for the Debian operating system under the GNU
General Public License, version 2 or above (at the option of any
re-distributor), and the Expat license.  The choice of which to use is
left as the option of any re-distributor of source and/or binary code.
 This dual-licensing applies in particular to all files contained in
whole or in part in the Debian diff.gz for the "cernlib", "mclibs",
"paw", and "geant321" Debian source packages as of the last versions
for which I was the Debian maintainer.  This dual-licensing of course
affects only files, or portions thereof, of which I am the author.

(Remark: "all files" above includes, but is not restricted to,
documentation and patches thereto, such as man pages, text files,
etc.; as well as source code files and patches thereto.)


By "GNU General Public License, version 2 or above" above, I mean any
of the licenses by that name authored by the Free Software Foundation
(or, if applicable, a widely-recognized successor organization
thereof) and having a version number of 2.0 or greater.


By "Expat license" above, I mean the following statement, which at the
time of this writing is available at the URL
