Guest Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 According to the GPL if i'm adding mods from the "contribution" area to Oscommerce that will be going to a client. Am I required to include a comment(s) in the source code with the date and change? Do I need to include my name in the comment? If I change the HTML or PHP within the file, is a dated comment from me required? (such as changing an image name, changing the HTML table, etc) Thanks in advance.

David, The only requirement is that you leave the original GPL copyright notice at the top of the file. However, comments are a good thing. They've saved me many hours when I've looked at code months or years later B) ed
