All of the licenses in Debian that impose a restriction on the license of modifications either: * only impose entry into a commons. OR * are the QPL. I think any license that imposes restrictions on the license of distributed modifications -- other than entry into a commons, that is, the same terms under which you received the work -- is non-Free. -Brian -- Brian Sniffen [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
