General ⇒ LPPL usage

[NikosK]

Hello fellas,

I have a question about LPPL. I have extremely modify Ivan Griffin's periodic table and I want to distribute it back. I don't know, however, how to change the copyright note in the preamble of the main document in order to not violate LPPL permissions and compromise mr. Griffin's work.

P.S. In Ivan Griffin's original work the copyright note in the preamble of the document was the basic note that LaTeX Project suggest in their site.

Thanks in advance.

Welcome,

can you give a little bit more context? I don't know Ivan Griffith nor his per. table. Do you want to distribute the source code or the final result?

Can you contact the author? Asking for permission is a lot simpler than thinking about license stuff, and none of us is a lawyer.

I want to distribute all the files that contained in my work including the source code and the final pdf. He has no contact details in any of his works.
Thanks!

if in doubt, it might be a good idea to refer to a link to the original work.
It might be this one: http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/p ... -elements/

Probably that's what I'll do. Thanks for your answers!
