Dear d-legal team, I'm currently intend to package rbdoom3bfg from https://github.com/RobertBeckebans/RBDOOM-3-BFG and I'd like to have an second eye on the license conditions set up by id Software.
I think they are both GPL-compatible and DFSG free, but as said I'd love to have an review. (The package has to go to contrib as there is no free standalone game data available, at least none known to me) The license is online at: https://github.com/id-Software/DOOM-3-BFG/blob/master/COPYING.txt NOTE: I'm *not* subscribed. Thanks! License quoted here for Reference: ADDITIONAL TERMS: The Doom 3 BFG Edition GPL Source Code is also subject to certain additional terms.
