subject: I`ve made changes to RPi.

Hello all,

You might not have noticed (yeah, right :-) ), but I've been busy making
changes to the RPi.GPIO package, and am now ready to repackage it.  As such
am looking at its documentation and have a few questions about what I'm
supposed to be doing there.

Mind you: I'm not aiming to spread the package (just backing it up as a
reference), but would want to have it in order for when it happens anyway.

1) I have /no/ intention to remove the origional writers name (Ben Croston),
but at the same time I do not want him to be emailed and blamed if-and-when
something goes wrong due to changes/additions I made.   What is the standard
way to handle this ?

2) I currently upped the version number (from 2.7.0 to 2.7.1) to indicate a
difference with bens version, but anyone else making changes to the 2.7.0
version (even ben himself) would cause an clash.   What am I supposed to do
here ?

3) anything I might have missed in this regard.

Or maybe better: Does anyone know where to find documentation which adresses
these issues ?

Regards,
Rudy Wieser
