- Copyright notice:
-
- This package, the EXT2 filesystem utilities, are protected by the GNU
- Public License.
-
- However, I request that if the version string in the file version.h
- contains the string "pre-", or "WIP" that this version of e2fsprogs be
- distributed in source form only. Please feel free to give a copy of
- the e2fsck binary to help a friend recover his or her filesystem, as
- the need arises. However, "pre" or "WIP" indicates that this release
- is under development, and available for ALPHA testing. So for your
- protection as much as mine, I'd prefer that it not appear in a some
- distribution --- especially not a CD-ROM distribution!
-
- The most recent officially distributed version can be found at
- http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net. If you need to make a distribution,
- that's the one you should use. If there is some reason why you'd like
- a more recent version that is still in ALPHA testing for your
- distribution, please contact me (tytso@mit.edu), and we will very
- likely be able to work out something that will work for all concerned.
- The release schedules for this package are flexible, if you give me
- enough lead time.
