Hi I'm working on packaging https://github.com/google/go-tpm-tools/ which has a LICENSE file that claims:
A portion of the source code is derived from the TPM specification, which has a TCG copyright. It is reproduced here for reference. The file has some other problem [1], so I'm not confident that this part is actually still a valid statement, but I reckon it is reasonable to assume so until some clarification is available. That begs the question, is the license below suitable for inclusion into Debian main? See verbatim quote below. /Simon [1] https://github.com/google/go-tpm-tools/issues/533 Licenses and Notices Copyright Licenses: * Trusted Computing Group (TCG) grants to the user of the source code in this specification (the "Source Code") a worldwide, irrevocable, nonexclusive, royalty free, copyright license to reproduce, create derivative works, distribute, display and perform the Source Code and derivative works thereof, and to grant others the rights granted herein. * The TCG grants to the user of the other parts of the specification (other than the Source Code) the rights to reproduce, distribute, display, and perform the specification solely for the purpose of developing products based on such documents.
