Sounds not realy funny.

This would even mean, if we work together, and I build the EPS filee and
I give it to you (the OSS guy) to review and continue the work on it, it
would be a violation of the Adobe License.

This situation is a real problem, (not  only  for  Debian)  because  the
person which continue the work could use a Freelancer Website  (me  too)
where both, the owner of  the  document  and  the  contractor  run  into
juridical trouble cause the Adobe license.

I am not realy sure, if this License is realy legal.

I do not know for the rest of the world, bur in the European  Community,
there was a judgement (can not remember wat it exactly was)  some  times
ago, because a similar thing.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
    Michelle Konzack
