Adding this SHA256 code made me read the BSD license once again. It
says:
* 2. Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright
* notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the
* documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.
Then there are a few files from Cyrus as well which contain:
* 4. Redistributions of any form whatsoever must retain the following
* acknowledgment:
* "This product includes software developed by Computing Services
* at Carnegie Mellon University (http://www.cmu.edu/computing/)."
And something similar in utc-mktime.c for Berkeley university as well. I
think I'd really like to get rid of those base64.c and utc-mktime.c
exceptions.. There's probably also an easier/faster way to implement
utc_mktime().
Anyway..
Currently these copyrights or acknowledgments aren't listed anywhere
else than in the source files. I don't know if binary packagers have
added those, but somehow I doubt it.
So I think I should add these to COPYING file somehow. Any suggestions?
Perhaps appending something like this:
