---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Reporter: myschizobuddy | Owner: chitlesh
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone: Fedora 13
Component: FEL | Version: devel
Keywords: 4-clause BSD |
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
There is a question by one of the opensource developers of NanoTCAD
whether his code which is a 4-clause BSD is allowed to be packaged in FEL
or not.
I will contact Fedora-Legal and sort out this issue.
