Hi,
I recently learn to use this handy hexdump tool, xxd. It is
distributed as part of vim-common and it has the following license:
(c) 1990-1997 by Juergen Weigert
<[email protected]>
Distribute freely and credit me,
make money and share with me,
lose money and don't ask me.
which doesn't seem to be listed in /usr/share/doc/vim-common (should I
file a bug on that?)
I don't find this license previously discussed in debian-legal.
According to this page
https://enterprise.dejacode.com/license_library/Demo/xxd/
this is a "classic two clause open source license" with a special
commercial obligation that is not specific.
I wonder whether the above license is DFSG-compliant (I find it cute,
might want to use it in my own code in some moment if it is). If not,
xxd should be separated from vim-common and packed outside of main (or
maybe Mr. Weigert would be willing to re-license it under different
terms?)
Please cc: me as I'm not subscribed to debian-legal.
Have you all a wonderful day,
P.
