[Babel-users] Babeld merged with GPL headers against copyright holders' wishes

[Juliusz Chroboczek]

Dear all,

Paul Jakma has added GPL headers to the babeld code that he has merged
into Quagga.  This was done against the wishes of Matthieu Boutier and
myself, the main two authors of this code, and without the knowledge of
the other authors.  Note that Paul did not simply ask us to add GPL
headers as a condition for inclusion into Quagga; he added the headers
himself, without asking us for permission.

I find that rude.

I therefore intend to do any further work in the quagga-RE repository [1],
and would like to encourage anyone wishing to experiment with Babel to
work either with the standalone Babel daemon [2] or the quagga-RE version.
