at the policy manual. Mea culpa.
This means I'll have to

The licence forbids it from
being used in a commercial manner (see below for an excerpt from my

Thanks to Santiago and Igor for helping me on the non-free
distribution question.
My initial group of packages had no lintian errors, and installed
without error on my system, so I have uploaded them. I now have some
general questions.
