This was just the most obvious reason, the license is poorly worded. If upstream is interested, I might be able to suggest changes that would make it free. This isn't actually an unheard of problem, where the license attempts to explain the GPL (and fails, causing restrictions and/or non-free state to become the actual license) as opposed to simply saying "This software is licensed under the GPLv2." ~tom == Fedora Project _______________________________________________ legal mailing list legal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/legal
