That would be cool, since not only is the plain QPL GPL incompatible, but it is also non-free. > Don't hesitate to give me your feedback, First, would you consider becoming part of the debian-ocaml-maint team, and commit your packaging effort in our subversion repo on alioth ? You need to create an alioth acount, and we will approve you, and you can then checkin the stuff, and we can more easily review and upload/sponsor it for you. Also, did you read the ocaml packaging policy ? Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
