I'd suggest sending them to the list first - so there are no
delays and they might get an early review.

Personally I'd like them to have a LGPL (which was originally intended
for libraries) License. BSD like or other liberal licenses would be OK too.
Vendors usually don't have a strong interest in protecting their
include files as they want to have their devices used, so this
shouldn't be a major problem.

The GPL license which is on most include files which come with
SDCC is to strict for most embedded projects - this is not intended
and we should try to at least LGPL them.

BTW: the cygnal header files Maarten sent to the list (2003-11-24) are not 
lost.  I've contacted cygnal and I'm hoping for a license statement as the original
"all rights reserved" from the files that come with their IDE clearly won't do.  
(Won't do for ANY project regardless whether commercial or noncommercial,
using SDCC or not using SDCC.)

Regards

Frieder
