Description
it appears that there is some FreeBSD licensed code in http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/ajaxim/ajaxim/
Unless you have forked the ajaxim project, this is not acceptable per the Drupal.org cvs policies. Can you please clarify the situation and/or remove this code?
Thanks.
#1
According to project page "Module development began from integrating ajaxim into Drupal. The result doesn't really look as integrated chat, a lot of code was changed, but a great part of it and idea was taken from original ajaxim." makes it sound like the code has been modified/forked from the original state?
#2
Perhaps so and I always forget to make the title right.
Either way, it's valuable to know whether this is committed by mistake or committed and the committer relicensed it in the process.
#3
Yes, we have a mistake in the title and we will change it immediately.
Anyhow it is forked ajaxIM.
By the way we have prototype libs included in the project repo, it was committed to increase usability, so users wont have to install all this libs, so should we remove them or not?

Things in the repo have to follow a couple rules:
1. must be GPL
2. must not duplicate code available elsewhere
I leave it to you to decide what to do since I'm not that familiar.
