Re: Re: OpenSS7 GPL'd LiS.

It seems clear that Brian is creating a new software package now that should have a different name.  Version number itself will get incredibly confusing should LiS  (latest stable version 2.16?) continue to be modified while Brian continues to publish and modify his LiS under the same name but different license.

The Software Group will not use a GPL STREAMs environment.  I suspect we are going to see a major splintering of LiS now.

I agree that a name change is in order.  "BLiS" ?  "LiSS7" ?
