The Artistic license is a free license by Debian's definition of free. Opinions can certainly differ over whether that's the correct call, but changing it would require a GR, and is exceptionally unlikely to happen. Unless someone is in a position to raise a GR on the issue, there's therefore not much point in discussing it here. Particularly in debian-devel, which is not really the mailing list for this topic. Either debian-legal or debian-project would be more appropriate, not that you're going to get any farther there than here. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
