Gary D. Gregory commented on DAEMON-472:
----------------------------------------

The RTF file is used to display the license in the About box from 
{{__apxAboutDlgProc()}}; therefore, it cannot be changed without code changes 
and losing the formatting.

If you feel strongly otherwise, you can always submit a pull request on GitHub.


> replace license.rtf with plain text

>             Project: Commons Daemon
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.1
>            Reporter: Gordon Pettey
>            Priority: Major
>
> Please get rid of the pointless RTF-formatted license file. This file has 
> nothing in it that depends on RTF funtionality, and would be better served as 
> plain text.
> This file existing in RTF format breaks EVERY downstream project that needs 
> to be downloaded through a corporate firewall that blocks all detected RTF 
> files, e.g. the tomcat package.
> The file's location is {{/src/native/windows/resources/license.rtf}}
