Hi,
I already answered John Gardner private, but forwarding my answer into
list, with little completions.
With licensing and copyright question related:
If I understanding right with John letter, I supporting any licensing
and copyright information related change, I would like me contributions
always to awailable free with all Liblouis users without charge.
This is true my code contributions and hungarian braille tables related too.
When in IT Foundation for the Visually Impaired - Hungary nonprofit
organization I created the hungarian grade1 table, my purpose to
hungarian blind users provide free access with hungarian grade1 and
computer braille in Liblouis with NVDA and Orca screen readers, or any
thirdpart applications with using Liblouis component.
Hungarian blind users active using Liblouis with NVDA hungarian
localized version and in Linux the Orca screen reader, so important to
free awailable this contributions future.
So, looks now how looking the licensing parts my contributions. This is
easying anybody tell me what can need I changing licensing related.
With tables related files top of part have following informations, when
I 2012 year finished the first final table, I copyed the licensing
related informations I think with english braille table and little
modified the maintainers and copyright related section:

If anybody tell me what need I replacing with licensing and copyright
informations related to awailable hungarian users free in Liblouis my
contributions, I will sending a patch the list. Unfortunately I not have
commit access the Github repository, so anybody need committing the
final patch into Liblouis Github repository the hammera_hu branch and
future need merging the branch content into master branch.
