Hi Robert,
I am not the ideal person to give you an answer about licensing. However, I remember that for Berkeley DB ht://Dig has a special license (db/LICENSE), which allows version 3.0.55 (patched) to be distributed along with ht://Dig (and only with it).
It is an "ad-hoc" and special license and I personally would not
mention it in the package description. I would therefore leave GPL
(LGPL).
Dear Gabriele, dear List,
unfortunately I have to.
In there I have:
1 x 3 Clause BSD License ('Sleepycat Software Inc")
2 x 4 Clause BSD (" The President and Fellows of Harvard University.", " The Regents of the University of California")
According to http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php
/Note/: The advertising clause in the license appearing on BSD Unix files was officially rescinded <ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/pub/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change> by the Director of the Office of Technology Licensing of the University of California on July 22 1999. He states that clause 3 is "hereby deleted in its entirety."
Do you think we can settle for : 3x 3 clause BSD license for this version of Berkeley DB with its modifications?
This would leave us witth the following:
Berkeley DB 3-clause BSD configure.guess/confiuigure.sub GPL v2 htdig itself GPL v2
Please guys say yours ... :-)
Ciao and thank you Robert! -Gabriele
