Hi legal folks! Is this a condition to move proftpd-ldap in non-free? I think the additional condition of postcard requesting is a GPL violation.
Quoted from author's site: mod_ldap is distributed under the GPL, with an additional explicit clause to allow linking against OpenSSL. As of mod_ldap 2.8.10, you _must_ send me a postcard at the following address if you use mod_ldap. If you do not send a postcard, you are in violation of mod_ldap's licensing. I'm not trying to be needlessly uptight about this, all it boils down to is that I want to know that people are using mod_ldap and that they appreciate the effort I put into working on it (and providing free support, I might add). I tried making this optional on some of my other software, but it's been several months and I've yet to receive even a single postcard. If you don't have(?) or don't want to send a postcard, send a photograph of your local area or of something geographically close to you that you find interesting. It'll only cost you a dollar or two. Please do me a favor and send it. Any hints -- Francesco P. Lovergine
