Subject: Tm-log.csv: Logging a Contribution that ONLY removes code?

Hi Bjorn & Janet,

 

I have a funny case here: A contribution just came in via bugzilla, which

fixes a bug by ONLY REMOVING CODE. That is, the contribution is

-1 lines of code in size.

 

Removing the lines is certainly an act of creativity, and I'd like adding the

contributor to our list of contributrs as well as the tm-log.cvs --- but can

the contribution actually be licensed under EPL since it's essentially

a decontribution? Should / Must it be logged? What do you think?

 

Cheers,
