Hi there!
As some of you might know, lua-mode, Emacs major mode for editing Lua, is undergoing integration to Emacs mainline. This is a tricky process for a project of almost 15 years of age that has been passed over several times already, since FSF guys are very rigorous on copyright details and want everyone, who has made a significant contribution, to sign a corresponding legal assignment.
I've reached almost everyone who may have done so, but there's problem: for some time circa 2002 -- 2006 lua-mode existed as an attachment to Lua wiki (as stated in [1]) with anyone being able to edit it to their liking. I tried to dig into modification history of corresponding pages, but I was unsuccessful finding the file itself. Here's the problem: the thing won't be over unless FSF guys (and me too) are sure, that there exists no code uncovered by an assignment from its respective author.
So, if there's anyone who:
- have contributed to lua-mode significantly [2] and is willing to sign the legal papers, please, contact me to provide you the questionnaire to start with;
- have contributed to lua-mode significantly and is NOT willing to sign the legal papers, please, contact me & point at your code so that I can rewrite it;
- can shed some light on lua-mode's history at that time (or, maybe, provide me with the link to lua-mode attachment & its diffs, which I was unable to find), please, contact me and do so :)
Many thanks.
