No one in KSPP land is saying "fuck you grsec, you don't get attribution". Actual mistakes are being corrected. Non-mistakes aren't.

E.g. one of the supposed mistakes was that according to Spender the license in grsecurity/Makefile covers the entire directory.

So upstreaming files in that subdirectory without somehow magically knowing that amounts to removing copyright notices according to him.

Of course, *nobody else thinks a Makefile is a reasonable place to put a copyright statement that should apply to the whole directory*.

Other cases were just tree cleanups (things like preparing for certain compiler plugins) that were redone by others (identically, by nature)

Or changes whether someone ended up with the same solution as grsec (because it made sense in context) unknowingly.

Some of them are legitimate mistakes (things like including attribution in a patchset header but not the individual commits).

And those are being fixed where pointed out. But Spender is also doing things like complaining about people's WIP commit dummy messages.
