-------------------------------------------------------------------
When publishing a modified version of dvdisaster you are kindly
asked not to misrepresent your work as the original.
The original authors have undertaken great efforts for putting the
project into shape and earning their reputation. So if you hack and
publish your own version of dvdisaster, please RESPECT the original
authors vision of what the project should be like.
Document your changes as explained below so that users can tell
the modified version from the original.
How to document your changes.
-----------------------------
Document the changes you made in the source code, NOT in a
separate file which might get unbundled from the changed source.
New files start with your copyright notice; modified files
get an additional entry under the original copyright notice.
See the file md5.c for an example.
But this is not enough; most people will not read the source
code as they are using binary distributions. Give them a way
to find out about your modifications in the "About" dialog.
The build process will prepare a suitable message template
for you if it finds that you have modified the sources.
Feel free to further customize this message, and even
change the project name if you deem that appropriate.
Thank you for your cooperation.
