This is a matter for -legal, but anyway. No, he's not right. The problem is that it violates DFSG #1, "Free Redistribution", in particular "The license of a Debian component may not restrict any party from selling or giving away the software" So, indeed, this is not suitable for main, but not because of DFSG #8. The license given here was not given "for Debian" (AIUI), but it is too restrictive for main, so it's not actually relevant. :-) Thanks, Bas -- I encourage people to send encrypted e-mail (see http://www.gnupg.org).
