Well we won't be doing it in the foreseeable future, but the wiki stuff should remain so that we still have to option in the future.

I'm still confused by the EPL/GPL (for ksh) conflict. It seems they both hate each other. Though as long as we are opensource, I can't see what the problem actually is. Probably why I am not a lawyer. I'd still like to eventually use a new supported ksh in CDE someday though, so I guess we'll just see.

I guess the only way to get the ball rolling is to wait for peter to

get back then... Shame as our move to MIT could fix the licensing

issues when trying to implement a newer version of ast-ksh.

According to a one-liner from Peter on #cde, we would need to ask TOG.

Also, according to:

https://github.com/att/ast/blob/master/LICENSE

There should be no problem for us using a newer ksh, if I'm reading that

correctly. (EPL-1.0)

So for now, let's just forget about any license change. My original

though WRT MIT, would be to allow commercial CDE's to be able to use our

code and maybe contribute back (same license as X11) - but this is 2018

and I doubt any of the remaining ones really care too much about CDE

anymore.
