Hello, I'm searching legal advice about the no-advertising clause in Bitstream's license as summarized in the following bug report.
-- Peter ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Christian Hammers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 18.2.2006 19:43 Subject: Bug#353462: ttf-dejavu: license prohibits advertising with Bitstream name - description uses them To: Debian Bug Tracking System <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Package: ttf-dejavu Version: 2.1-2 Severity: normal Hello The /usr/share/doc/ttf-dejavu/copyright file says: "Except as contained in this notice, the names of Gnome, the Gnome Foundation, and Bitstream Inc., shall not be used in advertising..." But the package is "advertised" by the following sentence in the package description: "These fonts are based on the famous Bitstream Vera font family" So... - is this "advertising" at all - is "Bitstream" the name of "Bitstream Inc." or would it only be a problem if we added the "Inc." to the description bye, -christian-
