            Bug ID: 784898
           Summary: Relicense examples to BSD?
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git master
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-streaming-server
          Assignee: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

                CC: ds at schleef.org
     GNOME version: ---

Wonder whether we should dual-license the rtsp-server examples with an
additional BSD license so no one has to worry when using code from them.
They're all so simple that it's barely copyrightable really, but why not put
people at ease?
