This is untrue.. The DFSG endorses it without reservation. It would be best when reviewing a license for it's inclusion in Debian to follow the DFSG. > I agree with questioning needing to agree stuff about US laws. I think this is already adequately explained elsewhere. > I'm curious what rights are reserved by the US Government - this > licence looks like it's not complete without knowing that. I don't see any rights reserved by the US government in that license. I see an explicit grant of rights to the US government and the standard no warranty clause extended to the US government, but that's it. Neither of these are freeness issues. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
