But what about the About dialog? Everybody seems to know what is NOT sufficient, but nobody said what information we can write there? One suggestion I like best was to drop the copyright notice there and replace it with something like "use the source, luke". That's a decision too big for kde-games-devel, though. Many people might not care about issues that seem unimportant enough to be safely ignored for years. But I feel strange with leaving a 1997 copyright notice there and cannot just change it to what comes to my mind first. Regards
