As I recall, you did post such a clarification on this list
a while ago, but I've lost it, and I didn't see much talk
about it.
I suggest that you find the mail in your archive, trim it
up such that it is ready to stuff on top of the LICENSING file,
and then we do if, unless somebody disagrees.

It's fine to do 1)-3) with me.

I sent the mail to the debain guy, because I noticed that
the LyX problem was "holding back" Debian 1.3, because they
judged it to be a "critical" bug.  (Politics...)
Hopefully, we can resolve this problem this way.

I wanted to fix the web pages on la1ad today for the 1.0
release, but unfortunately, I can't telnet into the box
anymore!  I don't know what happened (Lgb?), but the fact
is that I do not have a snapshot to work from, and thus
I haven't managed to do any work.

What is worse:  I don't have time to do a complete
overhaul of the web pages as intended before the 1st
of February...

Now, I'll start working on the click policy stuff.

Greets,

Asger
