Problem:
1. Don't know where to place the following problem
2. Some time ago John T Haller published a prerelease of ScitePortable 1.70 (meanwhile the thread for this app is closed in beta testing).
Since 31th of march version 1.73 is available. So I insert all the new sources of 1.73 into my scite folders. I also add a small version hint on the splash-screen and run the nsi created by John. Everything looks nice 
and a new paf-file was created after a few seconds.
Question:
John T Haller did the whole work to make scite portable (scripts, structure, ect.). Is it allowed to place a thread into beta testing with the new version, if I place a remark as like "base on version 1.70 by John T Haller - just upgraded to 1.73" and leave all creator infos as it was published by John (so no changes at his copyright)? Or do I have to get a permission by John ?
Is there any guideline available so I know what to do in future?
Thanks in advance for help

PS: hopefully I get my problem across. sorry for my poor grammar

If the original application is licensed under the GPL, you can modify it yourself and release it, so long as you keep it under the same license and attribute JTH's work.
As a general rule, just read through the license; the GPL is, while admittedly long, mercifully in plain English, so it shouldn't be too hard.

so I don't have to wait for a approval by john ?
When you have something to release, post it in the Beta Testing forum. If you've violated the license somehow, or otherwise goofed, then somebody will let you know.

is because John had a bit of a problem with a module that accidentally locked all posts older than 3 months.
