GNU Comment in the source code

[lastaid]

Hi,

 

okay easy things are:

 

- the copyright on the catalog could be removed if necessary

- the copyright in admin is untouchable!

 

but what is with the GNU License Comment in the source?

if change the source, under gnu license, i have to mark up the changes with the date...

or could i easy delet this comments?

 

no one could see this so i think its not importent if i change it, let it how its original or delet it, or not??

 

yours la

I am satisfied from the GPL license that this is sufficient protection under the law and complies with the license.
