I need to get permission to strip parts of that out and distribute the rest. I have asked for permission and am waiting on the answers of: 1. Can do that (take out some pieces and distribute) 2. If I can do that, are the pieces I took out good enough or do I need to make more changes. I want to make this happen and I am trying to do so. However, I have no idea what the outcome will be. One thing is for sure, people are watching me very closely on this .. therefore I must do it exactly the way they want me to. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

It has since disappeared. It was located in 6Workstation, 6Client and 6Server. Does this have anything to do with your request for a chromium-browser src.rpm ? -- Connie J.
