In reply to comment #11, anyone contributing code to this project has to agree
to a contributor agreement:
http://www.openinfosecfoundation.org/index.php/contributors. The foundation has
full control over all the source code and placed a GPL license in the
distribution. So, I am sure its an oversight to not have documented each file
being under the license they provided. The authors of the files are listed on
the project page meaning they should have a contributor's agreement in place:
http://www.openinfosecfoundation.org/index.php/team. Is this good enough or do
we need to wait for a new release?

As for comment #14, libhtp is only available as a cvs snapshot. There are no
releases except through the suricata project.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libhtp/files. I don't like cvs snapshots as the
only definitive source because its hard to verify if its different from other
distributions. Not only that, you might take a snapshot on a day that a feature
is only partially working. I'd rather take the embedded version since its the
one the project is testing with. If libhtp ever starts making releases from
sourceforge, then it might be a different story.
