[1] The copyright appears to meet our standards (DFSG). [2] The only alternative imap daemon doesn't support mail stored in mbox format. [Which makes a certain amount of sense, considering the reliability issues associated with mbox, but still...] We might indeed drop all UW software -- either because we decide that we want better relations with their developers (though that seems a bit self-contradictory), or because we decide it's too much of a headache. But that's a decision for the individual package maintainers. Also, note that I'm waiting for some clarification from UW on this "copyright issue". -- Raul
