This is going to be some work for me. Oracle's legal department has been very helpful on our open source requests so far, but it's a large team and is not familiar with this issue yet. I'll need to find, then brief, then extract approval from, the right people here. Before I do that, can I get some kind of authoritative statement from Debian that the effort is necessary, and that it will satisfy the concerns that have raised this issue for the second time? I want to be helpful, but I want to be sure we are solving the problem here. To that end, direction from db, release or legal -- whoever can speak for Debian -- would be good. mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
