<p>Dear Bernhard, all<br>
</p>
<p>Since the days I am with ETH (and some years before -- so about
since year 2000), the 3-clause BSD license (following my signature
below), has been used for the distributions of A2 (aka
ActiveOberon / Bluebottle / AOS) and most Oberon releases that I
know of or worked with (such as, for example, the PlugIn Oberon
System, in big parts by Emil Zeller).<br>
Normally, such copyright text should come with the software /
source code that you have. If you don't have the copyright text,
you probably have to ask the main author. Sorry for being so
vague, but I cannot speak for all contributors of the various
Oberon implementations.</p>
<p>Kind regards<br>
Felix<br>
</p>

Hello everyone, <br>
<br>
I'm looking to find an ETHZ contact who can tell me under
which <br>
license agreement the ETHZ Oberon sources fall. A few
decades ago I <br>
had an Oberon distribution running on MS-DOS, but then got
involved <br>
in working on commercial compilers. <br>
<br>
Recently, I've dusted it off and retargeted the compiler for
a <br>
virtual CPU and would like to redistribute it with source*,
including <br>
some previously undistributed ETHZ sources. <br>
<br>
So, can someone point me in the right direction to find out
the <br>
license agreement. <br>
<br>
<br>
* For the curious, the system works on Linux and Rasbian.
The whole <br>
Oberon system is not supported yet for a few reasons --
the most <br>
important being that I don't know how to program X. <br>
<br>
<br>
thutt <br>
<br>
PS: Is anyone even interested in a classic Oberon-2 compiler
and <br>
software? <br>
<br>
