To explain myself, i'm working on a larger Lua-package which i hope to publish. Then, copyright clearly matters. Thus each and every source of cause contains such a note. For the posting of the mail-list, i retained the copyright as an originator notice, and thought, a license would be implicitly granted for use of discussion. If anyone would have used it, well, in this case i considered the snippet to be draft and short enought. Since i'm new on the list, it is good to learn, that the people here are copyright aware. In fact i have a copyright concern with said package and the yet unknown 'folklore' of the Lua-users, since Lua itself and all of the packages i came across are MIT-licensed. Now having a strong GPL background, i would not license my work under MIT/X11 and wonder, if this would be considered a violation of habits, thus making a publication partically useless. Could anyone please tell me if there's a common position here on this matter. -lars PS. > BTW, I don't know if it is just a problem of mine, since no-one else has > complained yet, but it seems your mail client breaks the discussion > thread.

I subscribed a mail digest, and my client does not handle this. I changed my subscription's options and it will become better in my later postings.
