[Scummvm-devel] SV: escummvm / unofficial port to Ericsson P800

[Andreas.Karlsson at ementor.se]

Ofcourse I would like to do all the things that you ask. I've already been talking with some of the people on the #scummvm irc channel about merging my changes to the full source tree. The only problem that I have is that I have two versions of the port. One fully based on SDL (with a SDL port that I've made) and another that has an own backend. In the SDL port sound doesn't work but it's more stable than the one with it's own backend. 
 
Currently I'm on summer vacation and I can't access my sourcefiles. As soon as I get back (a week or two) I will start to clean the port up and try to fix the sound issues and upgrade the port to the latest version of ScummVM. And then post a patch to you. 
 
Best regards,
Andreas Karlsson.

	Hi there,
	
	we have been made aware that you are distributing an unofficial port of
	ScummVM for the Sony Ericsson P800. While we are happy about every port
	that's around there, you are currently in violation of the GPL.
	Specifically, you are not providing any instructions on how to obtain
	the source code, nor do you mention that that ScummVM, and thus also
	EScummVM, is covered by the GPL.  I am sure that this is just an
	oversight, and no bad intent on your part. I'd appreciate if you can
	fix that as soon as possible.
	
	In particular, if you didn't make any modifications to ScummVM to get
	it to work on the P800, a link to our regular source files is
	sufficient. If you did have to make modifications to the ScummVM source
	code, you are obliged to publish them, either as a patch against the
	regular ScummVM source distribution, or as a full tar ball.
	
	Also, I believe it would only be fair if you added a link to the
	ScummVM project to your web page (e.g. add a sentence like "This is
	based on ScummVM, http://www.scummvm.org"). Of course in exchange we'd
	link back to you.
	
	
	We'd be happy to cooperate with your, e.g. at the very least by adding
	a link to your porting effort to our links page. And if possible, we'd
	love to work with you on making your port "official" by merging your
	modifications into CVS (of course full credit for the port etc. would
	clearly be given to you).
	
	
	Cheers,
	
	Max
