Re: Copyright on wildmatch.c

I'm not sure on how i would rewrite hex.c it is just an array.
From git-compat-util.h i only needed a subset of the file (Lines 699
to 785), as you assumed, but rewriting it also seems pointless as it
is only a few defines and 4 very short functions.

I have asked everybody who changed anything in those lines for their
approval. I hope they all agree.

That discussion seems to have just died off.

Whom should i write to about making the license change effective? You
(Duy Nguyen) seemed to be fine with the license change. Can you, or
anyone else, further guide me on the process on making sure i can use
the file(s) in TSS?
I'm not a lawyer, but I think after you double check

 - what Jonathan Neider wrote about GPLv3 and Apache2 is true
 - perhaps check with Anthony Ramine, who is the only person besides
me that has made changes in wildmatch.c, in b79c0c3 (wildmatch:
properly fold case everywhere - 2013-05-30)

then wildmatch.c is good for reuse. You probably need to check with
other people who made changes in hex.c and git-compat-util.h.
git-shortlog and git-blame could be used to get the email list of
these people. But maybe it's just easier to rewrite those, hex.c is
not big and I suspect you don't need much of git-compat-util.h.
