Unless anyone objects, I am going to remove the copyright symbol "C" from source and header files (in response to support request #597). I will not touch anything that's not in a comment. ;-)
It looks like about 37 header files, and 24 source files.
I'll do this tonight, unless anyone objects.
Example transformation: In file "boost/archive/detail/auto_link_archive.hpp", on line #12: // C Copyright Robert Ramey 2004 will become: // (c) Copyright Robert Ramey 2004
A clarification, before anyone panics - I am not going to remove people's copyright statements from the source.
All I'm going to do is remove the non-ASCII symbol "C", and replace it with the (just as legally binding, at least in the US) string "(c)".
I thought we had established that the (c) sign wasn't necessary at all? Just saying 'copyright' does the business? Yours IANALly Paul --- Paul A Bristow Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal, Cumbria UK LA8 8AB +44 1539561830 & SMS, Mobile +44 7714 330204 & SMS pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
