Thank you for your quick reply.
The issue itself is interesting. Sounds like much effort and may
even require undesired things like modifying release tags...
I though it would be sufficient to publish GPLed files, not that a
special form could be required (and I had assumed it had been
sufficient to put them on some public server or even just to some
CVS repository reabable by the public).
oki,
Steffen
