Pokud někdo udělá užitečné změny ve zdrojovém textu CWEB, chtěl bych být o tom informován. Bez souhlasu autora nemůže být změněný program šířen pod stejným názvem. Nedávám žádnou záruku, že program nepoškodí mnohahodinovou práci, kterou uživatelé editovali. Program sice vytváří zálohové soubory, ale ty se při dalším použití programu mažou. and in English: The program may be freely used. If somebody makes useful changes in the CWEB source code, I want to be informed about it. The modified version must not be distributed under the same name without author's consent. Neither the program nor its modification must be selled. The author gives no warranty that the program will not damage your file that you have been editing for many hours. Although the program creates backup files, these files are deleted after subsequent use of the program. --- English is pretty bad, but as both of us can see it more or less faithfully conveyes the meaning in Czech. And unfortunately "Neither the program nor its modification must be selled." says to me pretty clearly (English is horrible, but Czech text is clear in this) that it could be distributed only non-commercially, which for Fedora (and other Linux distros) unfortunately means stop sign. Closing this review as WONTFIX, because there is not much we can do about it. Please, try to persuade Petr as the upstream author to relicense under some more common (e.g., OSI/FSF approved) license. I am really sorry about this, but there is not much we can do about this. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
