2019-02-14The title line is confusing github's license detector thingy.Rob Landley

2018-10-20Add SPDX identifier, update copyright year, move kconfig note into kconfig/Rob Landley
directory.
2014-09-20The ancient GPL (copied from the 2.6.12 kernel) build infrastructure is ↵Rob Landley
actually in the "kconfig" directory, not under scripts. Remind me to write a new one from scratch... (Someone actually submitted a basic kconfig rewrite in awk once, but until I bite the bullet and write my own awk.c, I just don't know awk well enough to maintain a large script written in it. Back when I maintained kernel.org/doc I wrote http://landley.net/hg/kdocs/file/tip/make/menuconfig2html.py but I am NOT reintroducing python as a build dependency. And neither actually implemented actual menuing part. So... todo list.)
2013-03-14Simplify license text, as mentioned on the mailing list.Rob Landley
Reasoning: it was never my intent to require anybody to copy license text into another project if they cut and pasted something out of toybox. The "permission for any purpose" is as close to public domain as you can get in our current screwed up legal system without making people uncomfortable the _other_ way. (Besides, my initial reading of that was "all copies of the source code" but that's not what it says, and somebody pointed out that Android has "show license text" options because paranoid lawyers think that sort of thing applies to the BINARY version, which is nuts.)
