Hello,
I'm packaging SQL Relay and the Python API is released under the
"PointOne Public License", as it was written by a guy working for
PointOne Telecommunications, Inc. at the time. It appears to piggyback
off of Digital Creations' Zope license, though I'm not sure which version.
Is this license acceptable for Fedora packaging? If so, how should I
refer to it in the spec file?
License follows, as it was submitted to me, originally.
Thanks,
David Muse
