------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2006-09-25 17:49 EST -------
It is right now. I looked at all the files to find other 
licence issues. 

in goo/, some vms_* files have no licence and the copyright:

* vms_directory.c:   Patrick L. Mahan
* vms_unix_times.c:  ?
* vms_unlink.c:      Thanks to Patrick Moreau ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).
* vms_dirent.h:      @(#)dirent.h 1.7 89/06/25 SMI
* vms_sys_dirent.h:  @(#)dirent.h 1.4 89/06/16 SMI

The ones that seem problematic are goo/vms_directory.c and
goo/vms_*dirent.h, since they have a copyright and no licence.

With a licence, one have:
* vms_unix_time.h: 1982, 1986 Berkeley software License Agreement
It seems also problematic to me since I believe at that time 
it was the BSD incompatible with the GPL.

The file in splash don't have any copyright nor licence. That
is strange, but they can certainly be considered public domain,
so no problem here.


The goo/vms_* files aren't used at all. I fear the problematic files
goo/vms_directory.c and goo/vms_*dirent.h should be removed.


And the upstream should certainly be contacted for those
issues (and the CMap issues), although there is a comment in 
the README, about the GPL which seems very strange.
