Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist I plan to package Majordomo version 2. It is the succesor of the widely known Majordomo 1.94.5 mailing list manager, which is not in Debian because the license is not DFSG complaint. However, I checked out the CVS version of Majordomo 2 and they have radically changed their license. It is now DFSG compliant:
