License clarification for xvt

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello:

On the review request for xfe:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=958150
a question was raised on the license of xvt/xvt.c in
xfe-1.34.tar.gz, which says:

/*  Copyright 1992, 1994 John Bovey, University of Kent at Canterbury.

 *  or without modification, are permitted provided that the following

I think this can be MIT, however I would appreciate if someone would check
the license above.

Regards,
Mamoru
