Hi, The x3270 package was previously removed from the archive due to licensing issues (see #248853 for details).
I opened this ITP after the 5250 code was removed from the upstream package. Also, I'm waiting for a clarification about one of the licenses, before uploading. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: licensing of the x3270 code Date: Thu, 04 Aug 2005 01:42:09 +0300 From: Lior Kaplan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: George Harker, Director of Technology Licensing <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi George, Can you clarify the meaning of "public use" in your copyright statement here: http://x3270.bgp.nu/license.html "Copyright © 1989 by Georgia Tech Research Corporation, Atlanta, GA 30332. All Rights Reserved. GTRC hereby grants public use of this software. Derivative works based on this software must incorporate this copyright notice." The issue is whether your "public use" conforms to the OSI open source definition (http://www.opensource.org/docs/definition.php). I'd like to distribute it in the Debian GNU/Linux distribution, since there are requests for this software. -- Regards, Lior Kaplan [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.Guides.co.il Debian GNU/Linux unstable (SID)
