This is not a legal or license question; Debian is fine either way. It's a question about where we want to draw the line between contrib and main, and all the previous iterations of that discussion have happened on debian-devel. debian-legal is just a place to talk about legal issues in Debian. It has no special role in the project, unlike debian-devel, and in general is not a useful place to decide project policy. Most substantive discussions of the DFSG, as opposed to its application to a specific unusual license, happen somewhere other than debian-legal. Anyway, rather than moving the thread, I think we can probably just end it, or at least this portion of it. I don't think there's any remaining significant substantive disagreement about this specific package and the DFSG. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
