Hi
I have been looking at the library Jimi for Java because I want it packaged:
http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/
But before it can be packaged it has to be legal :)
I have tried to read the license but im not sure if it is legal to
package. Well it won't fit into main... but perhapes contrib or non-free?
Look at the Supplemental license terms 1.b.
I have attached the entire license to this email.
The license can also be found when downloading the file from the above
URL, and witin downloadable file:
Jimi/License
I hope you can help clearify things for me
Thanks in advance
