Hi,
i'm not in the position to criticise your code here, but from my single
point of view, it does make
sense to include the GPL or whatever license into every single source file.
since every single file _could_ be used in other projects, this makes it
very clear to every developer
how to handle the 'borrowed' code.
at some projects i was always happy to find some GPL'ed or LGPL'ed code
with somewhat trivial but
timeconsumpting functions e.g. multibyte_aes256_crypt . if you're
looking for some special function,
there's surely no library for inclusion available :)
anyway, a license note in your source files doesn't harm at all. (well,
with some editor you might need
to push the page down button twice...)
greetings
Stephan
