Hello. Now I am reviewing synopsis [1]. Some of the files in synopsis uses Xerox license as below: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright (c) 1995, 1996 Xerox Corporation. All Rights Reserved. Use and copying of this software and preparation of derivative works based upon this software are permitted. Any copy of this software or of any derivative work must include the above copyright notice of Xerox Corporation, this paragraph and the one after it.

For synopsis, if this is LGPLv2+ compatible it is okay. So would you tell me if - this is enough Free for Fedora - this is LGPL/GPL compatible If this is GPL incompatible, I would appreciate it if this license is named and added to Fedora legal wiki page.
