Hello, I was reading through the available documents on Texlive and it's status in Fedora when I ran into the Legal Audit page[1]. I see detex in the list[2]. Is this the DeTex utility that takes a tex file and outputs the file minus the tex macros?
I ask because DeTex is marked on the audit page as NON FREE, but it is already available in the Fedora repositories: I packaged it. I'd therefore want to confirm it's licensing. The spec can be found here[3]. According to the home page[4], its licensed under NCSA/University of Illinois Open Source License, which is in the list of good licenses for fedora[5]. I use LaTeX regularly, for documents and presentations, and anything else I can do with it. If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know. I'm only a user though (been using Jindrich's packages), and will probably need some mentoring to begin with.
