I suggest using a BSD-style licence as default, but the attached one is not one. Do we have other stuff under FBSD-doc terms?

I will help with this, if you wish. I think I know how to get today's contributors (webwml group) and any since the current CVS started (cvs history and logs) but how to get 'em all? > c) a note should be added to the Debian site (as a News item?) describing the > license change (and the reasons for the change) and giving a 6 month > period for comments.

However, it seems a good idea for SPI to assert a copyright interest in the work. cc: -legal and -www only Hope that helps, -- MJR/slef Laux nur mia opinio: vidu http://people.debian.org/~mjr/ Bv sekvu http://www.uk.debian.org/MailingLists/#codeofconduct -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
