Hello,

My apologies, I definitely picked the wrong forum, but this one looks more suitable than others :) I have a question regarding very old SDK called WinNT 4.0 / Win95 SDK what I got on CD while was subscribed to MSDN about 20 years ago.

On the disk at the path \MSTOOLS\SAMPLES\OPENGL\SCRSAVE\FLWBOX I have found source code for the famous Microsoft 3D FlowerBox screen saver (morphing 3D objects if you're oldschool enough to remember :D)

All files in this folder:

GEOM.C
GEOM.H
MAKEFILE
PRECOMP.H
RESOURCE.H
RSRC.H
SSFLWBOX.C
SSFLWBOX.H
SSFLWBOX.RC

comes with very simple license (no license, just copyright) in the header:

/**********************************Module**********************************\
*
* ssflwbox.c
*
* 3D FlowerBox screen saver
*
* Copyright (c) 1995 Microsoft Corporation
*
\**************************************************************************/


So the question is - can I reuse provided source code with keeping all copyrights as MIT or Apache, maybe GPL? And make my modification of this source code available to the public?

Thank you very much for the answers!
