>>Visa,
>>
>>As you will know already, in order to simplify Boost licensing, we
>>are in the process of moving to a single common license
>>(http://www.boost.org/LICENSE_1_0.txt).  The aim of the new license is to
>>provide a single wording, that encapsulates the our previous license
>>requirements, and which will simplify the evaluation of Boost for
>>commercial
>>organisations.
>>
>>So here's the big question: may we have permission to change code that has
>>copyright "Housemarque Oy" to use the new license?  The copyright
>>declaration would
>>obviously remain, it's only the license text that would change.
>>
>>If "yes", and you have Boost-cvs write access, please add "Housemarque Oy"
>>to
>>more/blanket_permission.txt.
>>
>>If "no", please give us some idea what objections you may have.
>>
>>Many thanks,
>>
>>John Maddock.
