OK. One final question. Actually, two. Is the original author Scott James Remnant OK with adding the script to a GPLv2 project? Also do you want your HP affiliation appear in the author field or your gmail address?

Scott James code was motivation to start the project. But if you compare the two code lot of changes are done. Infact only thing that remain now is how i draw using the cairo which is also modified a bit. This is the COPYING file that scott had in bzrk project. http://people.ubuntu.com/~scott/bzr/bzrk/COPYING But gitview is quiet different from bzrk. I just wanted to add it to the code that i started with bzrk code. Regarding HP affiliation i guess it should remain. In short you can add the file as I send you -aneesh

IANAL but AFAIK even if the code is quite different by now, if you _started_ with bzrk code the copyright of the original author is still lurking inside your code - it's basically a continuous series of directly derived works. OTOH, what am I not getting?

Correct. That way i guess we can add the code the way i sent. In any case i am marking this mail to scott. So if he has anything to add he can let us know -aneesh
