Thanks for the help. For anyone who is interested, I've gone ahead and opened an issue and proposed a patch at http://drupal.org/node/154477. ----- Original Message ---- From: Moshe Weitzman <weitzman@tejasa.com> To: development@drupal.org Sent: Friday, June 22, 2007 9:50:33 PM Subject: Re: [development] Date Calc and ADODB date library

And my original question -- does anyone know exactly how I should attribute the original authors and licenses in my Drupalized version?

we have at times included 3rd party code in core. these packages served us well for a while but we eventually moved on. perhaps you can go back in time and figure out how we attributed them. i would think this could be done similarly. i agree that this functionality in core would be useful.

The file above was a wrapper around PEAR DB. I think we required people to download it themselves if they wanted it. So perhaps not much help to you.
