Re: [libredwg] [news] Autodesk and Open Design Alliance Reach Agreement for Autodesk DWG Trademarks

Ok
here are the files.

the only one that is not marked is the trivial class :
OdBaseFileBuf.h
OdBaseFileBuf.cpp

I dont see any real IP in there, it is pretty simple.

I will remove them and create an alternative from the code left over.
thanks,
mike
