Hi Patrick,

Hello,

I can't find the copyright status of TMKMAKE from the QUSRTOOL library.
QUSRTOOL/QATTINFO.AAAMAP has the generic disclaimer that if the world comes to an end while you're using it, IBM is not to blame.

Below is a copyright statement:

5769-SS1 (C) Copyright IBM CORP. 1980, 1997
Licensed material - Program property of IBM
See Copyright instructions, G120-2083

Unfortunately, I can't find the referenced G120-2083. Not in my documents collection, not on the IBM publications search page, not with Google.

I consider to give some programmatic love to tmkmake by trying to fix what I perceive as bugs and probably include some enhancements. As long as I keep those to myself, nobody would know and thus nobody would care.

Eventually I want to put the source and my enhancements to the public via GitHub, so others may benefit from them. Of course I'll leave the original copyright statement intact (if there are any in the files *only* belonging to tmkmake).

Anyone has some helpful advice?

:wq! PoC
