Hi Vaclav, Thanks for yor work and welcome to Debtags! I think it would be more helpful if you include your tags/facets as text into your email, makes it easier to check. Basically, I think that having such information is good, but it's not really license. This should better be license::gpl, license::bsd, license::proprietary etc and could be automatically inferred by reading the debian/copyright. The tags you have would better be under a facet like "freedom" (maybe licens*ing*), or maybe, because it mainly talks about restrictions (and the default is DFSG-free), "restriction". Right now, it looks a bit overwhelming to me, but that's more because of the bewildering nature of (non-free) software licensing. What do other think about it? Do you care for asking our lawyers at debian-legal about it? best regards Torsten - -- Torsten Marek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ID: A244C858 -- FP: 1902 0002 5DFC 856B F146 894C 7CC5 451E A244 C858 Keyserver: subkeys.pgp.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDeirafMVFHqJEyFgRAndPAKCn7yC/toA80VOvYm6YkDU/jV28hwCgkzt6 xKZhzEUTZIYzvdoR0tnqtAE= =UgwP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Debtags-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debtags-devel
