Hello GPL gurus, I have a payment module I have developed and I want to put into the osCommerce contribs. I know it should be GPL'd first but I have no experience with GPL and my own software. What is the procedure for "contributing" a module under GPL at osCommerce? Please advise, David :-)

Anything you contribute is in fact released under the GPL as stated on the Contributions page. What you should do is include the GPL licence as a text file with the contribution package and your source files should mention it is GPL licenced too (look at any osC page for an example).

I hope that explains things a bit.
Thanks for contributing!
