So what changed? Did Bernstein change his licence!? And can't the qmail-src maintainer just upload a binary package? I fail to understand this ITP, and all the objections - wether or not we SHOULD is not the point as I see it. It's a matter of CAN we.. ? And wether or not Qmail is any good - MY opinion is that it kicks ANY MTA's but! Postfix and Sendmail both suck big time compared to the simplicity and speed of Qmail. Opinions are like a butt - everyone got one (sorry, couldn't remember the English equivalence of this old Swedish saying - but I asume that the point isn't lost :). So to be or not to be is irrelevant - the question is: are we ALLOWED to distribute it or not? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
