I just had a look at the ocaml package. The changelog.Debian says ocaml (3.08.1-1) unstable; urgency=high * Dropped QPL 6c qnd choice of venue clause from the QPL licence. However, /usr/share/doc/ocaml/copyright still contains clause 6c and the venue clause. Where is the modified ocaml licence? -Ralf. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
