Re: Questions about CCXML and CCXML interpreter

Robert,

thanks for your comments. I really appreciate them. As you
said, I'll check the licenses in that order. My first guess was to
use a W3C license because it is an implementation of a W3C
specification. Of course I'll point to and refer to the Phonologies
copyright notice.

I'll also check if my sourceforge id and login is active (didn't work
with SF since several months). I'll contact SF and see how it works
out.

As soon as I managed it I put a short notice on the list.

Regards
Werner
