We stopped building documentation for the coq package because it is under this license. The LICENSE file says: "Options A and B are *not* elected." I only see options A and B in Section VI, so that would fall under this exception, right? When I visit https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/not-allowed-licenses/ and search for OPUBL-1.0, the usage note you refer to does not appear, so I was unaware of it. Now that you mention it, I do see it in data/OPUBL-1.0.toml in the Fedora License Data repository. I just paged through every license on https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/not-allowed-licenses/ and no usage notes are displayed for any of them. -- Jerry James http://www.jamezone.org/ _______________________________________________ legal mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
