Erm, do we have the right to redistribute
these changes, then?


In principle, supporting more versions
of MS-Windows is a good thing, but we need
appropriate rights to do so, and it's not
clear to me that we have those rights ..

The updated copyright note
Looks OK to me ... (Though it seems wrong to
reference so many folk yet omit the original
author (me)


However, I don't see a version
of the patch with the cleaner copyright notice.

Also, please don't rename the file without
updating all the references to the original
name. Since thoses refs are in docs all over
the web ... I think it's best to just
not rename it.

Uh... I basically took what Xiaofan provided and changed IDs and that's why.
But true enough, as I think about it now, I took some parts from the original
linux.inf file so there's probably *at* *least* as much your work as mine in
there.

I'll add you in the next version. Or should I remove the notices all
together? Personally I feel they serve two purposes: give credit and let
others know who might be a good person to ask question. I'm fine either
way...

Ah, haven't thought about that. I grepped Documentation/ but forgot
about grepping my personal copy of the Internet I keep in my basement. ;)

I intended a consistent naming and that's why the rename. In any way,
I'll get the old name in the next version of the patch.

NAK ... still waiting for a version of the
patch with all requested changes. In
particular, without the rename (which
invalidates most documentation, though
it would otherwise be a reasonable cleanup).
