Specifically, in the license, RELY is defined as: the human act in taking on a risk or liability on the basis of the claim(s) bound within a certificate issued by CAcert Then the license says: THIS LICENSE SPECIFICALLY DOES NOT PERMIT YOU TO RELY UPON ANY CERTIFICATES ISSUED BY CACERT INC. IF YOU WISH TO RELY ON CERTIFICATES ISSUED BY CACERT INC, YOU MUST ENTER INTO A SEPARATE AGREEMENT WITH CACERT INC. So, if you do an insert, it means: THIS LICENSE SPECIFICALLY DOES NOT PERMIT YOU TO (take) the human act in taking on a risk or liability on the basis of the claim(s) bound within a certificate issued by CAcert, UPON ANY CERTIFICATES ISSUED BY CACERT INC. Its rather confusing, but the final conclusion was that this counts as a use restriction, as opposed to a simple waiver of liability. This means the license is non-free. :( CACert should simply dislaim any liability and let end-users/distributors worry about their own risks. -- 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. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
