(It's certainly used by many other Debian packages!) IANAL, but AFAIK when a license doesn't explicitly allow something, it means it's not allowed. I'm adding CC to debian-legal. Can you people send your advice? Thanks. -- Robert Millan (Debra and Ian) (Gnu's Not (UNiplexed Information and Computing System))/\ (kernel of *(Berkeley Software Distribution))
