I should explain more. The author's purpose, I'm relatively sure, is to get a bit of attention/credit and/or do some advertising. The package in question is ocs, a suite of web-based programs whose components (e-mail, chat, calendar, etc.) work from a common base. Thus the program's output is html and the GPL restriction/addition is a hypertext link on the login screen of the system and a similar link in the about screen. This link points to ocs' own web page. -- Regards, | Debian GNU/ __ o http://www.debian.org . | / / _ _ _ _ _ __ __ Randy | / /__ / / / \// //_// \ \/ / ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | /____/ /_/ /_/\/ /___/ /_/\_\ http://www.golgotha.net | because reboots are for hardware upgrades.
