I had emailed briefly with Maurizio a couple years ago, though haven't
heard of any news since. He was well at the time.

I think that these should be removed.

Once again, "All rights reserved" has no legal meaning anymore and is not
incompatible with any free/open license.  Please see this page for an
explanation:



Even if the phrase did have some legal force, it would only apply to people
who do not have a valid license granting them further rights.  In the world
of free software and open content, everyone can obtain a license granting
some of the rights normally "reserved" by the copyright holder.  Thus "All
rights reserved" would at best only apply to persons whose license has been
revoked because they violated its provisions.

I am pretty sure that Andres was confusing Maurizio with another member of
our community who passed away (Gerard van Dongen).

Last time we discussed this, you yourself said that apparently nobody
cleared Maurizio's permission to license the manual as GFDL...
Anyways, if these statements are void then maybe they should be
removed?

I worked on the licensing and re-licensing of Csound personally.
Not sure what you are saying, but with Barry Vercoe by my side,
we arranged with the Lawyers at MIT to change the license for Csound
to LGPL and the manual license to GFDL.

Sorry, I was responding to the idea that the "All rights reserved" is the
problem.  I think that I suggested the possible absence of permission.
Maurizio's Python opcodes and their docs passed through Gabriel's CsoundAV
before being added by (I believe) Michael Gogins to Csound 5.  Gab, Mike, or
John would probably be better able to say whether permission was obtained.

I meant the documentation for the opcodes he wrote. This is after the
relicensing of MIT.
