The troublesome clause of the FDL says "of the copies" not "of the material". Please try to use the licence, not random translations. If the licence is worded incorrectly, that is still a problem that needs fixing. > Anyways, what "field of use" is it that specifically concerns itself > with limiting other people's rights to make copies of software? Use on DRM-only devices. Isn't a licence which effectively says "you may not use this on $CLASS_OF_DEVICES" failing DFSG? -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only: see http://people.debian.org/~mjr/ Please follow http://www.uk.debian.org/MailingLists/#codeofconduct -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
