The FSF should be assigned the copyright for all software contributions to GDB. There is actually some legal paperwork to go through with the FSF in order to put a copyright assignment agreement in place. The simulator is part of GDB, so gdb/CONTRIBUTE is a good source of information on how to contribute to the project. > - We would prefer to release the code under GPLv3+, but GPLv2+ would be > fine as well. We have transitioned GDB to GPL v3, so that's not going to be a problem. -- Joel
